nemo interview

madelyn was going on and on about "nemo" while we were riding home tonight and cracking me up. while matt ran into the store for a few quick things i wanted to try and get some of the interview on video. its like the camera distracts her. it is sort of a representative of what she was saying, but when the camera was off/down she made a lot more sense and gave more feedback.

she has been asking me to draw "hammer head shark" all day because of seeing the "stick shark" in nemo and having me tell her that it is a hammer head. and i guess the swimming underwater looks like "swimming in the air" to her. after i stopped filming she starting saying "duuude" like the sea turtles in the movie. she was quite amused with herself.

she keeps saying "okay" because she was really upset about coral, nemo's mom, getting eaten at the start of the movie. i told her that sometimes big fish eat little fish and it is okay. today was the first time this was ever upsetting to her (she has seen it maybe 5 times before). she also got upset when the sharks were chasing marlin and dori; i told her that it was okay because the sharks couldn't get them. so for the rest of the day she kept saying that different things in the movie were "okay".

okay - one last point just because it is crazy. twenty minutes (or less) from our house got 14.3 inches of lake-effect snow today and we had sunshine all day. just crazy. love.

For several months my boys always wanted to skip the first scene of Nemo with the barracuda eating Coral. It's like they all of a sudden realized what was happening and didn't like it. They just started being ok with that scene a few months ago.

It's such a great movie :)

I find the scary deep underwater thing with a light on its head far more frightening... I love Nemo... we haven't watched it in a while, i think I'll put it on next week's entertainment-while-I'm-nursing list.
