Marley is such an incredible reader. The boy who used to fight me tooth and nail to practice in kindergarten won’t sleep because he wants to finish his book. He is onto the 6th Harry Potter book. I have read the first 6 books and, while I bought the 7th, I never had time to finish it. I promised him that we would read the 7th book together. I am so excited!

4 boys all looking at the camera and smiling. How ever did I this happen?!? I can hardly get the all to smile while eating ice cream, much less with the camera around.

Flickr is darkening photos to protest of SOPA and PIPA. I can always see both sides of an issue, I just always side with freedom, especially when it comes to free speech. So, I darkened my blog photo (and what a gorgeous shot of my guys…) for today’s post.
