7yo John has devoured 35 Boxcar Children books in the last few weeks and now he's started on his first "real" book: Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. He's covered five chapters since an hour before bedtime tonight, and he's taking full advantage of our rule that allows kids to stay up as long as they want as long as they're reading.
Now that's a fine gig. I had the same deal growing up, only I had to use a flashlight under the covers so that no one, including my parents, knew. So I guess I really didn't have the same deal...
