That my friends...

When you meet with a reading group
reading Bridge to Terebithia
that last week was basing characterization
on the illustrations and not the words
but somehow this week
you manage to engage them enough
that there is actual conversation happening
That my friends in magic

And then
When later you meet with a group
and go over the latest terms
in the Literary Dictionary
Everyone has been working on
for the past 3 weeks
and not only do they listen
75% of the time
but also participate
and answer questions...
That my friends is a miracle.

And when both things happen
ON THE SAME DAY...
That my friends is a good day.

It was a good day.
