Today, Henry began reading the Harry Potter series (out loud, while Jack sat 8 feet away reading Wacky Wednesday. Out load).
Henry: "Professor McDougal went..."
Liz: "McGonagall"
Henry: "Oh. It's a hard word to announce."

Henry: "Dad, this is so mean. Listen to this. 'Harry had a thin face, knobbly knees, black hair, and bright green eyes. He wore round glasses held together with a lot of Scotch tape because of all the times Dudley had punched him on the nose.'"
George: "Is he bleeding?"
Henry: "NO GEORGE. THIS IS A BOOK! IT'S NOT REAL!"
Jack: (running in the door with his remote control dragonfly): "This thing is out of juice."

Henry: "Professor McDoogal..."
Liz: "McGonagall"
Henry: "Whoever."
George: "JUUUIIIIICE!!!!"
