.. or a Bee!
This afternoon, Carter and I went to see The Bee Movie. She's been obsessed with the bee commercials - she even cries when they're over. So I figured it we were going to try a big-time, big-girl movie, this should be the one!
We went to the matinee, which wasn't too busy. We got treats, and got cozy. She was totally into previews, but kept asking me, "Mommy? Bees?" When the movie actually began, we yells, "Look, Mommy! BEES!" I didn't think it'd go well from there, but she was a saint! She sat, snuggled in my lap, for 3/4 of the movie, then moved to the seat next to me. She's so tiny that it mostly folded up and her! But she didn't mind - she was loving the bees!
When we left, she kinda whined: "Mommy? Do again?"
That's a good sign that Carter is ready to join Andy and I in our movie-going, cinema-loving interest!

"BEE's!!! Mommy!! BEES!!"

What a good girl!!!
