Madison earned it with her computer work, so today we went to see "Dolphin Tale 2" at the movies. And even though Winter didn't do any work at all, she was brought along to see the show. Madison has a stuffed Winter, who has been with her a lot lately. The two sat together at the theater, along with a big tub of popcorn, and together we watched the movie.
Madison really liked it. Mommy and Daddy did too, particularly for the educational value. The purpose and process of rehabilitating and releasing marine life is really covered in this movie. There were plenty of shots underwater of dolphins swimming about, and it was good to see all the actors return for this one. The first movie was clearly better, but this was an enjoyable experience for us, and we're of course happy to support the whole concept of marine life rescue. Madison wants to go back to Clearwater now, and right in the middle of the movie, she let us know that she wants to touch a dolphin. You read it here first.
The rest of the day was school, which was fun for Madison. She knows all her spelling words this week without any problems, and is miles ahead of everyone else on the Scoot Pad. We had time for the speech homework tonight, where we were making up goofy sentences - and we had time to read from the Never Girls book. It appears as if we are meeting the Lost Boys, but we'll see how that goes as we turn the pages tomorrow night.
Daddy wrote another message or two today, each with a LEGO theme flavor. One message was actually started while watching Madison play tennis yesterday. Daddy had the iPad with him, and was typing away his thoughts. Another message will hopefully be about LEGO Batman. It's for the end of October, so that might all work out with the series.
More in a bit on the day. Right now, it's time to get some shut-eye!
