That does seem like a really great venture, but alas, I have no story of my own, nor do I know of any that could fit the bill. How is homeschooling going BTW? Are you on Christmas break? LOL!!!

His grandfather wanted to come to America from Italy, to escape The National Fascist Party and Mussolini. But immirgrantion rules at that time required that every immigrant must have a job and an upcoming marriage. He had a pending job but no prospects for a wedding. Writing his uncle he tells him of his plight. Months pass before he recieved word from his uncle, that an marriage has been arranged upon his arrival to Nevada. So with a few possessions, a job and a bride? he sets sail to America. After a very long trip across the Atlantic, he makes his way out west. Upon his arrival to Nevada, plans for the wedding are put into motion. The only thing that his grandfather knows about his bride to be is that she is 15 and was not "pure" of heart. On that day they married and even thou they had their up and downs, lots of screaming in italian. :happy: They grew to love each other for over 50 years. :hugging: My husband tells the story about his grandparents.

Thanks, Julie...we're not that far, but he loves it so far (he's been begging me to read it with him, I convinced him that we had to read it together, but he wants to read it on his own....LOL...he's my reader).

The third book gets a little creepy (the dementors are scary, especially since through them, Harry can hear his mother being murdered). The fourth through the end all get increasingly intense and deal with issues such as death, dying, grieving, torture (esp. the 5th)...but the first two are fine. A little scary, but nothing more than a seven year old is probably used to in cartoons. But it's all very individual to the child, I suppose.

One couple I know have been married over 50 years. I love knowing that and knowing them. They moved next door to my family when I was 15 and we've remained friends. It is a wonderful thing have such long time friends and such great examples of a good marriage. :applause: :thumbsup: :SmallSanta: :reindeer: :ccane: Julie, thanks for sharing the story about your grandparents. Real life stories about how people meet is always interesting. :santabag: I'm off the run errands & maybe finish Christmas shopping. Depends on if the day goes smooth! Mostly I need to shop for food & other necessary items!! What fun among the Christmas shoppers!! :bigxmas: :rain: Yes, shopping in the rain! We need it, no complaints!!

Hub update: he'll be fine....his CT showed no bleeding in his brain... Question (random): I am starting to read "Harry Potter" with my 7 year old. I haven't read it in awhile...is there anything I need to be worried about? I can remember the story, just not the details. He loves it so far (we're only about 14 pages into the story).
