At some point in time, children begin to put two and two together and start to realize where the food we eat comes from. This happened with Logan the other night at dinner. He was goofing off at the table instead of eating (big surprise there!), so I said "Logan, eat some of your chicken". He looked at me and said "Chicken? Like the thing with feathers?" I knew exactly where this conversation was going. Logan is practically a vegetarian anyway and I thought this was going to be the end of his meat eating days. "Yes, honey, like the thing with feathers." I went back to eating and hoped if I didn’t make a big deal out of it, the moment would pass. After a few seconds of being ignored, Logan said "Uh, hello! I’m eating a bird here!" It was one of those moments that took all I had not to bust out laughing. "Yes, honey, you’re eating a bird." Amazingly, he wasn’t fazed by it and went back to eating.
We’re in the third week of school and Lauren came home with her reading test scores yesterday. Please indulge me for a moment and let me be a braggy mom. Even though she’s only a third grader, she tested at an eighth grade reading level! Our web designer, Nicole, got her hooked on Harry Potter over the summer and she has been obsessed ever since. She’s had her nose buried in a Harry Potter book for months and she’s about halfway done with the fourth book. It obviously helped her reading ability. I’m so proud 
I’m also really happy, because I have managed to pass down my love of reading. Being a reader has really enriched my life and I’m so happy that it looks like she will follow in my footsteps down this path.

Thank you for all your kind words about our anniversary! It makes me so proud to have helped so many of you with your scrapbooks. My story even inspired one female business owner not to give up yet on her business (it’s only been a year). It has been my pleasure to provide you with the very best selection of travel and theme-specific scrapbook supplies on the planet and I look forward to doing it for another six years.
As always, thanks for your business!
