Every weekend morning our oldest has decided that instead of cartoons she would like to watch a movie. And by movie I mean The Little Mermaid. You see that is her absolute favorite. To the point that if our youngest sees you with a DVD he will start yelling "Mermaid!" Really it is that bad. At least I was able to find a copy of the trilogy, so that we can mix in a few versions of the favorite. But this morning she suprised me. After not watching anything yesterday she asked to watch a movie. I knew what was coming. It was still in the DVD player from last week. But instead she asked to watch Cinderella. I had to check to make sure I'd heard correctly. Yes, indeed Cinderella it was. So as they gathered chairs, I put the movie in to cries of "Mermaid!" She had to explain - no Cinderella. Boy was he confused.

But that didn't keep the grins from coming!
And his tradition of only staying in the chair and watching it for a few minutes held true. Even less than normal as there wasn't a Mermaid or fish to point out. He wasn't overly impressed with Cinderella. He went back to his vehicles and balls.
