Summer is our movie season. Tim and I rarely get to a movie during the school year. I first heard about Tree of Life over at Internet Monk’s site.

But then Salon also had this piece about it, naming it the Pick of the Week.  This statement: The simplest observations are often the most profound moments of insight reminds me ever so much of Ann Voskamp”s writing in “One Thousand Gifts.” Have you read it yet?

I’m going to lead a book group on Voskamp’s book on Wednesday @ 10 a.m. this summer. Join us if you are in the neighborhood.

What movies are you looking forward to seeing?
