I snapped this photo of Avril all wrapped up in a quilt listening to our family read aloud, since she looked so adorable and cozy. We're on the last book in The Wingfeather Saga. We read a chapter or two several evenings a week first thing right after dinner. Sometimes our parrot, Arcus, will join us and he'll choose someone to favor and allow them to pet him. Tonight he perched on Norah's shoulder and shirt collar as she read and tried to imitate her voice by making a rumbling noise. When she's reading, he makes a noise just like an a.m. radio station that hasn't come in clear yet. When she pauses, he stops. He's a huge distraction, and we all laugh, just reinforcing his behavior.
