Jonathan and I both had the same size pizza slice for lunch. I was chatting away while Jonathan was nodding sagely along, occasionally commenting on my monologue. All of a sudden he noticed that he had a quarter of a slice left while I was already finished. Honestly puzzled, he asked, "How in the world can you talk so much and finish faster than I do?! I never even see you eat with your mouth full." I told him that it was a rare talent. And one that his sons would no doubt inherit.
Second, I finished A Game of Thrones last week, and am now onto the second in the series, A Clash of Kings. The latter book was sitting on our bed on the bottom of a stack of board books I'd been reading to Ari and Xander. Xander took the novel out from under Is Your Mama a Llama? and sat down on the floor with it, turning pages at a fierce pace. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Reading this book with lots of words," he replied. Then he gave it back, looking at me in pity. "Mine are better!"
