movie review

I don’t know how single parents do it. I applaud you if you are one. Lately I have had a full group of daycare kids as contracts end and overlap with other contracts beginning. It’s good timing with Christmas expenses so I’m not complaining. It is make me one tired person though. And all these fun holiday movies that are on starting at 8PM make it hard to adhere to my early bedtime. Who can resist such heart warming stories. And they are on “W” (the “women’s” channel) so they are geared as chick flicks, cute leading men and stories

Description ~ Take a wonder-filled journey with Jesus and His disciples. The Jesus Series introduces children to the life of Christ. This DVD is an uninterrupted half-hour presentation of Jesus’ ministry along the shores of Lake Galilee and the villages near Nazareth. Children will see Jesus call His disciples, feed 5,000 people, heal the sick, teach about God’s kingdom and introduce the Lord’s Supper. This DVD completes The Jesus Series by presenting the life of Christ in a way that little ones can understand and build a solid foundation on. My Review ~ I popped in the DVD for the kids

This movie was very fun also. A little hard to understand the accents but it was about a young boy who would prefer to take ballet lessons than boxing lessons – much to the chagrin of his on-strike-miner father and older brother. When they realise that he does have talent the family bands together and he eventually auditions to be accepted into the Royal Ballet School. Two of my favourite parts are when Billy walks over to his friends house and he answers the door wearing a dress. Billy’s expression is priceless but more-so is the way he just accepts

My son Travis (7 months old) and I just finished watching Flicka. It was a really sweet story of a girl who is passionate about horses. Her family has a quarter horse ranch. One day she finds a wild mustang on the land and brings it home. It’s a nice family movie about horses and Travis loved the horses too!
