The cutest Harry...

Today at school it was dress up as your favorite storybook character day. As many of you know Caleb and I have been huge Harry Potter fans. He was only barely three in these pictures and was Harry for Halloween. He was Harry for Halloween every year until last year. When he was little he wanted us to call him Harry Potter. He was so dang cute! Every year he takes the class at the college about Harry Potter. I even lied about his age the first year to get him in because he wanted to so bad. And I have to admit I chose his fourth grade teacher based on the fact that she loves Harry Potter and she is is a great teacher. But really it has been something that me and Caleb have been able to share and have some common ground on. The year that Prisioner of Azkaban movie came out we went at 6am to stand in line to get tickets. Another thing we did was go to a midnight release party for book 5 at Hastings together. The Harry Potter series has had a major impact on his life. And mine. It has created some really great memories that we have been able to share together and as a family. Caleb has grown up with him in his life. He will be 9 in August and as his mom I couldnt be prouder of what a great kid he is. So here is to you Harry, I mean Caleb.

So funny he keeps on being Harry for Halloween. I love those books too. I read the last three books in about a week! I had stopped reading them once the movies came out, but when the 5th movie came out, I had to finish reading them so I could go to the movie. Caleb makes a cute Harry!
