Boys Vs. Girls

Our Dish Network is out until the repairman gets here on Saturday. So today Noah asked to watch a DVD. We had a huge box of them that my aunt had given us when her kids (two boys and a girl) outgrew them. This morning when Noah got to chose a movie from the box, he chose Cinderella. I figured he would not like it and would be asking for a different movie within minutes of putting it in to play. However, it held his attention and he watched intently until the very end. I was starting to think that there was not that much difference in the way little boys and little girls view things after all.
Near the end of the movie, when the prince goes to Cinderella's house and tries the shoes on the stepsisters then angrily demands to see the other sister (Cinderella) to see if the slipper would fit her, Noah was literally sitting on the edge of his seat. As Cinderella sat down in the chair to try the slipper on, I heard Noah say, "Don't do it...If it fits he'll catch you and take you away with him!"
Oh well, I guess there is a big difference in the way little boys and little girls view things after all.

I guess you do what you have to do to make it an action movie!
