We finally finished reading the first Harry Potter book with Ella as her bedtime story this week, so Friday was a special movie night treat where she got to watch the movie for the first time. And my treat was to watch her watching it. She had the biggest smile on her face. I think this is going to be on heavy rotation in our house while we start to read the second volume every night…
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
An amazing coming-of-age story, and a superb performance from the young cast. This is funny, touching, warm, and packs a powerful punch near the end. I won’t spoil it any more for you, just go and watch it.
