I had a reality check on how non-normative our family's experience was today when I realized DS3.5's association with the name Nemo isn't an animated fish, but rather the captain of the Nautilis from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Aside/tip: This book is great read-aloud fodder for this age!

Aside 2: I'm grateful that DS enjoys good literature. Given the volume of books read each day, it's good for my sanity that our material be writing I enjoy, too! smile He's been begging to read the original Frankenstein, but I think we'll have to hold off there for now.

What is to give light must endure burning.
