I took Astrid to see the movie, "Up" today. We got home at 6:30 and it was sweltering inside the house. I got an idea to go to the movies - for the cool air conditioning - and also because I had heard people raving about "Up". It was playing at 7 PM - so Astrid and I jumped in the car and went and saw the movie.
And this is what my 4 year old got out of it:
Astrid: "Why the man hit him on the head and make blood come out? And why the police come?"
Mama: "Well he didn't want the man touching his mailbox and he got really angry. But you can't just hit people, or you'll get in trouble."
Astrid: "Yeah you can't hit people. You're supposed to say - 'Please don't do that that.' Right mama?"
Mama: "That's right."
Astrid: "I say sorry when I push people at school sometimes. And they supposed to apologize to me too. When you hurt someone on accident you have to apologize."
Who knew there was a built in proverb?

Isn't that a great movie? Julius keeps asking for it. And we are still waiting to watch it in 3D. He keeps drawing 'snipe' foorprints, and Ritsu, who has only seens bits of the movie keeps calling that bird a 'skype' ... ah well .. the internet generation
Don't you love hearing a little one 'connect the dots'? Goes to show, they are always listening and learning!
