Happy Birthday, Alex!

Today is Alex's 7th birthday. He just finished reading the first five Harry Potter novels. He accomplished his goal to finish the series before July 16th. The only thing that he wants for his birthday is the new, sixth book, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Unfortunately, it is not released for sale to the public until tomorrow. I am thinking about taking him to one of the stores that will start selling the book at 12:01 AM. It could be a neat experience. We'll see if we decide to do that.
