As a child, I loved to reenact movies. "Parent Trap" and "Annie"were my favorites. I would make up tickets, "sell" them to my family and make them watch me dance to the movie. I am amazed my family still loves me after making them watch hundreds of poorly acted shows.
Unfortunately, my kids have discovered that trait. Their favorite shows are "Mary Poppins", "Annie", and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" (I love it that they adore those old classics). They sing and dance and perform on our coffee table. Even Georgia jumps up to be part of the action.
The local jr high put on a production of Annie and we took the kids to see it. They sat so nicely in their seats and chomped on their treats. They were spell bound.
Abby told me she wants to be Mary Poppins for Halloween and wants Tim to be Bert. Then they can sing together! I am happy to watch all their renditions of their favorite shows. Hooray for creativity!
