Narnia and Playhouse

John Mark and Wesley have been reading The Chronicles of Narnia since about the beginning of the school year. A few times a week they will sit down together and read for about half an hour or so. At first, Wesley appeared to not be very interested and would play while being read to. After about the first two or three sessions, Wesley was obviously hooked and started requesting to "read Narnia." They have also been reading it on trips, even just ones to go out to eat if we're driving a little farther than usual. So far, they have made it through "The Magician's Nephew," "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," "The Horse and His Boy," "Prince Caspian," and they are about half way through "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader." Curtis often protests these long readings, so he and I go to his room sometimes to read something of his choice. Sometimes he just plays (somewhat) quietly around Daddy and Wesley.

I recently made a little playhouse table cloth to go over our dining room table. The boys have had some fun in there, and I think it will be a fun thing to bring out every now and then. Wesley requested an empty milk carton and water bottle to have inside so he could have a kitchen. He also wants a refrigerator. :)
