Finally tonight we get to go see it, the end of the saga.

I can't wait.  It's been a delight to read each book and wait and wonder how it will turn out.  It's also been so fun to have all the kids I know so into it.  Through the years we have enjoyed "harry potter parties" the best of which were thrown by the Blacks.  Midnight book releases where we went ahead of time and got wrist bands so we could buy it at Barnes and Noble and got on the library list so we could check out a copy because we needed to have more than one on in the house; then spending the evening in downtown FtW with all the other fans walking around enjoying activities, seeing costumed people and drinking jamba juice waiting for the magic hour and the release. Seeing the movies, then getting on DVD.  Laughing and crying (I'm still not over Hedwigs death).  It's been great.

In parting a little HP wisdom:
Dumbledore to Harry: "Dark and difficult times lie ahead. Soon we must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy."
