Movie Night!

Tonight at the dinner table Ava was asking Ben and I about what we liked to do as kids. While Jocelyn, Molly, and I left the table, Ava and Ben stayed and continued talking. I'm not entirely sure what was discussed, but a few minutes later they came into the living room and announced we were going to watch the movie Brave. A movie on a school night? Not exactly what I had in mind for the evening. At the same time, I could tell the evening had been a special one for my husband and oldest daughter. Who was I to ruin it? So we all sat and watched the movie together. It only ran us 10 minutes past bedtime, so the benefits by far outweighed the cost. It was a very nice and unexpected evening for our little family.
