Harry Potter

July 26, 2008 | Weblogs, children

For some odd reason my husband and I have become obsessed with Harry Potter. I know the books and the movies have been on for a while but what can I say we work to our own beat, a slow one at times.

But now we are really into it and are in fact thinking of going to see the next Harry Potter’s movie (out in November) dressed like Harry and Hermione.

This has caught on with my kids who also seem to want to watch the movies 24/7. My D5 (daughter number 5) who is not even two years old talks about Dumbledore and Harry and Snape….I wonder if this will have some lasting damage on her little psyche…..

Expecto Petronus…….

    Love your blog. It’s fun to read and sassy. You give us a glimpse of what it’s like to be an army wife and mom and invite us to walk in your shoes for a while. The Italian background and the six kids makes it even more unique! Congratulations on your work. We included you in a recent roundup of military wives/mom bloggers. Anna

    I just found your site and I have to say all of it sounds oh so familiar. I am an Army wife and mother of 3, ages 9,6 and 4. Honestly I don’t know how you do it!!! As I am reading I am asking myself ‘What am I complaining about?!? I only have 3 kids, and mother and wife are my only jobs!’ Bravo to you! I love reading about women like you who have so many responsibilities yet haven’t lost their minds….completely.

    By way of introduction, I am the mother of two grown girls (28 & 29) and was married to a policeman who had been military in another era. I read your column for the first time today and find your honesty and wit are very entertaining; and it is all your reality! Regarding Harry, my wish for you is that you continue to enjoy and share your creative imagination with your husband and kids…it is a gift you give them that will last their lifetime. I too loved the series (except the last one as it went on and one and on), and I’m pushing 63! I have worked for the world famous “mouse” for 25 years, and keeping a little fantasy in your life is a very important piece of a happy future. Reading is my favorite entertainment and your column ranks right up there with my favorite authors. God Bless, and good luck to you, your handsome, private, Ninja husband, and your beautiful family. Mary
