I do

An apt description

Ada: Grandpa Lee is mommy's dad. 

Gus:  Your right!  And do you know who my daddy is?

Ada: Grandpa with the oval head!

Lord of the Rings, finished

Today I finished reading The Lord of the Rings to Max.  It feels like we've been at it for months at a casual pace.  Most hyperactive eight-year-old boys could not get through the whole thing.  Max's uncanny ability to listen to stories has not diminished in the slightest.  I'm glad I got to read such a good book with him.
