The cute things kids say

I try to write these fairly often so I will remember the awesome things my boys say.

Yesterday, Avery asked me, "How do you have friends?"
Rofl! Does that mean that it doesn't seem like i should have friends? lol. It was so funny.

Today, Avery asked, "How is your hair?"
Well, dear, it was good the last time i asked it 80).
Then he said, "it's long. You need to cut it."
My kids speak their mind. I don't know who they got that from at all 80)

Tristan and I were talking during Avery's basketball practice.
Tristan was pretending to be a tyranasaurus rex and I was begging him not to eat me. He had me stand up, and he said, "Youre too skinny. I only eat people with meat on them." So this is a good thing, I wasn't eaten by the tyranasaurus rex, this time 80).

Gaslight

So, as some may know, I love classic movies and books, alike. So, now that I have additional tv channels, I have enjoyed catching some classic movies. I caught Gaslight in its entirety. I have seen it before, but I forgot how much I loved it. Ingrid Bergman is in this movie, as well as the debut of one of my favorite stars, Angela Lansbury. She was 19 at the time.

If you like black and white movies, and you see Gaslight coming on, just give it a try. It's such a good movie. Ingrid Bergman won an Oscar for her very believable performance. Since I recently had to explain who Ingrid Bergman is, she was also in Casablanca. I was at a loss when I had to explain what Casablanca is.

The funny thing is that the premise for Gaslight is the premise for 1/4 of the Lifetime movies available. 80). Maybe not that many, but it's close. I was watching Mind Games, and that is the same exact premise. Don't get me wrong, I love Lifetime movies as well. It's just funny how some of the same classic plots get redone over and over.
