(blog entries, not HP books. Maybe next summer...)<br /><br />My favorite part of Zach's is the "poof up some turkey" reference. Also that it never occurs to anyone to have Mrs. Weasley poof some up. haha<br /><br />And yes, christy, Jake's story would look like that (he's 4, so his typing skills aren't quite there yet!).<br />ericaerica and christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13074820593371226159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804696485095159380.post-34959539366992448092010-12-11T10:42:08.505-06:002010-12-11T10:42:08.505-06:00Yes, I find myself not able to read as much.

I mostly fit it in while I wait 10 years in the car line to pick my daughter up for school. The car is so awkward that I can't really write or take notes. So that helps. <br /><br />Love the little HP story from your son!Abby Minardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963640263845561309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804696485095159380.post-24454415076190541142010-12-11T10:23:03.603-06:002010-12-11T10:23:03.603-06:00Oh how wonderful!
