remembering

Okay, I think last night it clicked in. I remember now who John Grady and Billy "are" from the other two books. I think it's a tough jump to go from an easy, breezy read like The Host back to Cormac McCarthy.

C. and I had a big day. We went on a decent bike ride (7 miles) and met friends for a playdate at a park. In the evening we went to see a movie and eat dinner in the theater pub. He is soooo adorable and I loved spending the time with him.
We were both worn out when we got home. After a while (and a minor tantrum) he curled up next to me on the sofa and read his little book called Tails. I read it once and then he took it and read it a few times himself. After a few minutes the reading stopped, the book slipped to the floor, and C. had fallen asleep while reading for the first time. Not bad for just three years old.
