More words

I realize that the Harry Potter books were written for a much younger audience, but when the first book came out and I bought it for my then six year old son, it was our bedtime story each night and we became hooked. My boy was a slender, dark-haired boy with wire rimmed glasses. His friends used to teasingly call him "Harry". This week's words are dedicated to him. At 18, he doesn't always make the best choices. A reminder of the amazingly smart, talented kid within is probably in order. My adorable little "Harry" is all grown up and fighting with far more difficult monsters than the story version ever had to face. But like Dumbledore said, "Love. If there is one thing Voldemort cannot understand, it is love. He didn't realize that love as powerful as your mother's for you leaves it own mark."
