Day 180

what a day what a day... LOL

As you see I am a hair late with this. Spencer's birthday is on Sunday. Because of that we spent the entire day with his mother. I do mean the entire day. We got home a little after midnight and I went right to getting this done. Multitasking can get a bit confusing now.

Oh did I mention the hamster escaped too? ~Sighs~ I was working on stuff to get this done and next thing I know I do not hear his ball anymore. I turn to see him scoot behind the stove. Now that the excitement is over where was I?

In literati, wow just fantastic. Excellent player. Excellent manners. Even better sense of humor. Here was our board:

Today's Movie: The Velveteen Rabbit

Oddly I do not recall this story from my childhood but I knew of it. I do not think I realized how sad of a movie it really is in parts. Overall it is a great movie with ample places of imagination. I think it however too sad to think of a child watching it. I am not naive, I know children of all ages can lose a parent. I just felt it should not have been geared to such a young audience.

A little boy has lost his mother. His father has no one other than his own mother, the boy's grandmother to care for him. It seems none truly want this young boy. He once at his grandmother's finds an attic full of old toys. In that attic was also a gift from his mother, a velveteen rabbit.

The boy and his rabbit go on imaginary adventures. He will befriend a swan who used to be his grandmother's imaginary friend and a horse who was once his father's imaginary friend. He finds laughter and love as well as understanding in his imaginary friends. He misses his mother. He misses his father. His grandmother is cold.

As the days pass he will bring alive pieces of his Nana "Grandmother is just awfully long, don't you think?". He and she will set up for Christmas. All he wants for Christmas is his father. His father however is just too busy.

When the ball falls to scarlet fever will the ones around him realize what they might lose should he not get better? What of his best friend the velveteen rabbit?
