Two thoughts

I love two!
Miss Elinor is forever cracking me and Joseph up with her antics. My favorite recent episode was catching her (she thought she was alone) in the hallway doing the chicken dance to a banjo rendition of "She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain." I do love two.

Also,
has anyone out there read Watership Down? Am I missing something or is it a really bizarre book? Rabbits totally staying true to their rabbit-nature but also being planners and adventurers? Rabbit mythology and vocabulary? But they're rabbits! It's enjoyable and entertaining, but I'm not sure I get it. I probably need to go see what Sparknotes has to say about this. I didn't really get the genius of The Catcher in the Rye either.

I read Watership. I didn't quite get it either, though I enjoyed reading it.

I absolutley HATED The Catcher in the Rye. Hated it. So this makes me think I won't be giving Watership Down a try any time soon. :)

In my experience, the 'Terrible Two's' don't really start till closer to three, and the two's are the best!
