As
a mom I get to watch cartoons quite a bit with my babies. Some I enjoy more
than others, some movies convince them they want to see so I can watch them. =) One of the movies I
had the privilege of watching was How to Train Your Dragon. Hiccup a young Viking, seeking the approval of
his father wants to prove himself as a dragon slayer by catching and killing
the most elusive of all dragons a night fury. Unfortunately he was not able to
kill him after looking in his eyes. He decides to befriend him , along the way
he discovers the secret of the dragons raids. It's funny, sweet and I loved it
and the 2nd one!!

A Classic Upbringing
My parents were very conservative and monitored and limited what I was allowed to watch as a child. We had limited cable and the movies we watched were the classics ,Seven Brides for Seven Brothers , The Sound of Music, Pollyana, and The Parent Trap were among our favorites. They were of a different time more innocent. We watched these classics and more over and over. As a result today I still love musicals and music theater. I am currently attempting to find them on DVD to a pass on a love for the classics to my own children.
The First Movie I saw in the theater...
The
Land Before Time released in 1988, it was to be my 1st trip to the movie theater.
Little did I know it would also be the first time a movie made me cry. In the
opening credits a baby dinosaur is born a "long-neck" who is named
Little-foot. His mother dies protecting him from Sharp Tooth (T-Rex) and
with her last breath tells him to find The Great Valley. (Insert me crying
here.) So he sets out to find it and finds some friends along the way. The unlike group of friends becomes a little
family as they go through trials and struggles finding their way to The Great
Valley.
