3-D

Today was the first day in a long time that Harry, Elias and I got to spend the whole day together. This morning was spent doing mostly boring stuff like cleaning and running errands. While we were at the grocery store, we ran into our neighbor and his son who is the same age as Elias. We pushed the shopping carts together and Elias and John Paul sat in them and had a serious conversation about movies they had seen. This topic must have been on Elias' mind because we were going to see a movie later that afternoon.

During lunch, Elias told us that if we "couldn't do something the first time, we should just keep trying." Once again, a bit of advice from my little philosopher son... I don't have any idea where he picks it up. Also, this is apparently something he says to Harry when Elias is watching Harry play a video game and Harry isn't doing well. How comforting.

After lunch we headed to the theater to watch Coraline. It was so good. It was also in 3-D and that was pretty awesome too. The theater was packed because the film was made here in Portland, and also because it is awesome... did I already mention that? Elias looked pretty cute in his enormous 3-D glasses. By the way, 3-D is not the same as it used to be and neither are the glasses. I was surprised that Elias kept the glasses on through the entire movie but he did. He also got a little scared and asked if we could leave at one point, but luckily we made it through.
