Alvin


We have been going to the movies more, now that the kids are older. Last weekend it was The Princess and the Frog, which I thought was pretty good. But what the kids were DYING to see, deep down in their hearts of hearts, was Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Squeakquel. Them, and every kid in Quito. The place was packed, but the kids really enjoyed it. Nicolás sat like a zombie and Agustín kept jumping up and laughing so loud, repeating what the characters were saying, and just getting a kick out of it all. He was a show in himself! But, in the end, the six-year-old was too cool to take a picture beside Alvin, his favorite character. Can you believe it? Glimpses of the teenager-to-come...scary.

I absolutely LOVE when you can experience things through the eyes of your child. You are right, the money you spent to take the kids to the show was worth their reaction :-)
