Harry Potter has made his appearance
in our household for the last 11 years. Yes when Akanksha, my kid no 2 was
born. I still remember my husband coming to me and handing me the first HP book
Philosopher’s Stone and from page 1 I was hooked!! Thankfully Akanksha was of the
age when she slept most of the time so I could read the book.

Then I started with the book 2 and so
on.

To get my elder daughter reading, she
was 7 then, I read out the books to her. I just cannot imagine how I read out
two full books then ditched her half way in the third book. Since she was
interested in the book she finished it!! Down she went hook line and sinker!!!
Now she is the one who is our HP encyclopedia.

My younger daughter celebrates her birthday
on 6th Dec. and I had expected to have party on the 8th
Dec a Saturday, but unfortunately that was not to be. So we are having her
birthday on the 15th Dec.

acceptance letter from Hogwarts!
