A Book Hero


 

Dan, Sara, Noah, Mia, Zach. Are they not beautiful? Seriously.

We are back home and Ellie had a rough evening of yucky stuff ("sucky" as Ellie would say to combine those 2 words) flying outta her body, at one point forming yet another lake here in Wisconsin.  She keeps questioning whether or not we are home yet.  And is having bouts of eeyor-ishness (gloomy sadness), probably partly because she isn't feeling well. 

Another Ellie Lesson from her stupendous Aunt Sara:
Over the last year or so, it seems more and more people are prophesying the end of the book era in favor of digital books.  I don’t think Ellie has much capacity for disdain, but I bet that idea would not leave her feeling too jilled.  Very few things satisfy like the tactile enjoyment of holding a good book, being surrounded by good books, organizing a pile of good books – finding just the right book to read at bedtime.  Ellie is a true book lover.  A lover of not only a frabulous story, but of the medium itself.  On behalf of books and bibliophiles everywhere, thank you Ellie!  You are our hero!
Love from Richmond,
Sara
