I don't why we don't pick up on this pattern until after the fact, but Jamie has once again disproved the notion that you have to walk before you can run. Just as he waited to walk until he was an absolute expert and could zip off in a hurry, Jamie seems to have waited to start reading until he could read almost anything. The penny has dropped suddenly and he is a reading machine, tearing through one chapter book after another.
This has coincided with and partially contributed to a shift in sleep patterns. It used to be that Jamie would drop off to sleep the second he got in bed and Connor would be awake for hours. Now, having done with naps, Connor tends to sack out very quickly, while Jamie will now lie in bed and read for hours if we let him.

Saw in the Post that there's a movie (video?) of the Owls of G'hoolie (no idea how this is spelled!)
