This weekend was full of even more Harry Potter.

We finished reading book 2 (I know I said we wouldn’t start it until the kid’s birthday, but lemme tell you, rules go out the window when there’s a pandemic and you’re trapped inside and your kid is begging you in the sweetest manner). So we finished the book, which means we then downloaded the audiobook so the kid could listen AGAIN (which he did — and which he finished). So for those of you keeping tally, we read book 2 twice this weekend.

There were a lot of questions, but I would be lying if I told you my dream quarantine didn’t include deep discussions about Harry Potter with my child.

This photo is of Ezra listening to the book with Hazel at his feet, as usual, in his fort of a bed.

It was a good weekend, indeed.
