There's nothing I like better than sitting at home in my favorite chair, right next to the fire, with a good book.
Many days have been spent re-reading the Little house series, Nancy Drew and Boxcar Children mysteries, and many more! Anyone who tells you that you can't learn much from these types of books is ENTIRELY wrong! I have helped my Dad solve countless crossword puzzle clues, just by knowing Laura Ingall's favorite poem, where she lived in what year, and so forth. The only problem for me, is that there is not enough time to read all the books I want to! Recently, I have started on more dramatic books. Such as: Harry Potter, (I finished them in a week and a half), and Percy Jackson (less than a week). My brother Jasper started me on them, and says I shall soon move on to the Ranger's apprentice series. Percy Jackson definitely started me on Mythology! Jazzy and I have decided who in our family would be children of what God/Goddess.
Jasper is a brain child of Athena.
I am the Daughter of Poseidon.
We often have little sessions on the books, like this morning Jazz asked me what I thought my Patronus would be if I were in Harry Potter! After some thought, I came up with two: A Robin, like my middle name, or an Otter.
Jasper says his would be a Wolverine....... I'm not too sure about that though............... :)
This afternoon we'll be taking a trip to Bend for some shopping, and Mama's Old Testament class at Kilns College, and B&N for a new book for me! I will then speak to NO ONE for the remainder of the Book!
(some peace and quiet for once)! ;)
Well, that's only one fraction of me. The rest will have to wait for another post.
Aurora.
