Once upon a time

Once there was a prince, oh but not of the usual kind.
He used toothbrushes as sceptres and yogurt as a crown. His robe was his pj's unzipped dragging behind him on the ground. He devoured books, quite literally especially scriptures. He loved phones not to talk but to press buttons. He required no lessons at dancing, it came quite naturally. He challenged other princes and princesses (and sometimes kings and queens) to battle, eye poking was his favorite move. He commanded constant holding at his proper elevated position with no feet touching the ground. His commands consist of "doy doy doy" and "weuoivhkjweih". And of course every now and then, he have a royal fit. He was a prince indeed.

The prince at his daily task of removing all the books from the bookshelf:

J. performs this task with equal gusto everyday... What charming little princes we have. :)

I'm hoping it's a sign that he's going to turn out just like you and Stephen. With two parents constantly reading, studying, buying, stacking and shelving books, how could he do otherwise?!

He's practicing for the day when he can read all those books. And he looks pretty pleased with the results.
