Verbatim

We've passed the parental milestone of "It's so fun you're talking!" to "You can be quiet now."  Okay, that sounds harsh.  But, I do know we won't be taking him to a movie theater anytime soon.  Yesterday morning I popped in a movie our neighbors had loaned us-"Up"- because I had to get some things done the computer.  This half-worked. Our computer is in our bedroom, TV in the living room, yet I could clearly hear every loud word as Jude commentated the entire movie.  Here's about 10 seconds of it that I wrote verbatim to Mark:

"Fifel, this TV funny.  Fife, it funny, yeah? Look dog outside! No go in water!  No fell off okay?  Maybe go inside! Everybody fell off! Need be careful!  I'm sad someday. No!" .........

Talking, talking, talking.  And I've reached another parental milestone: not remembering at all what a quiet house feels like.  And knowing how sad it will be the day it is.

Love that movie and love Jude's comments! Yes, and cherish the moments! They are all too fleeting.

Can't wait to have the chatter here! Wonder if he'll talk to Mysty?

We should see what happens when Ellis and Jude watch a movie together. I'm guessing it could be very entertaining.
