### Harry Potter Question

Hey, I'm reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire again, and I have a question--Harry can't see the thestrals until Book Five, after he "sees" Cedric get killed by Wormtail. But he doesn't actually watch this happen, because he has his eyes closed during the actual murder. But close enough, right? Except didn't Harry watch Voldemort kill his mum? So then wouldn't he have been able to see the thestrals from the start (book three is the first time we are introduced to the horseless carriages)?
Yes, a very important question. Hee hee.
Oh, and has anyone read Breaking Dawn yet? Don't tell anything, but if you did, did you like it? I haven't gotten my hands on it yet.
Telima and Tyler, are you having a great time with LaDale? Did you run into the big US 6 closure? Brad and I heard about it on the news the morning after you left and thought...oops, bad timing.
Love you all. I'm waiting for the FAIR conference to begin--vacation for me! Hope all is well at home with Bradley and the babes, and swimming lessons and all!
