Our first movie as a family...

Curious George 3 was the first movie we all "technically" watched as a family but the kids didn't actually sit through the whole thing...

However in honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday (which is actually tomorrow 3/2) Rocco's kindergarten class at Russell has been learning about his stories. He came home from school last Friday and told us that he learned about The Lorax.

We put the movie on that night and all 5 of us snuggled up on the couch together and watched the entire thing. Christian is 19 months now and I was amazed that he sat with us without really moving off the couch. April thinks it was the bright colors, perhaps but either way he enjoyed something about the film. Rocco & Giulia liked the story and characters as well...

Power of Prayer

Rocco asked me to help him pray for the first time this weekend... He was running a slight fever all day Saturday and was afraid of getting another stomach virus & throwing up all night long. After some acetaminophen it broke & he felt better but the fever kept coming back, even this afternoon -- April said!. Him & I had a real bad stomach bug several months ago. It was the first time I remember being laid up for 30+ hours without eating or really moving out of bed at all... He never forgot that night, hugging the toilet every few hours, etc... and wanted to say a prayer asking God to not let it happen again. Saturday night we prayed for Rocco's stomach & Giulia's boo boo on her back to go away. Sunday night we prayed for Mommy & Rocco's stomach bug. April passed a comment that she felt funny just before bed so Rocco wanted to throw her into his prayers. The prayer I came up with for the kids is a mixture of one of my lines from a song I did ...
