Last night, Maddy and I went to see Monsters vs. Aliens in 3D. What a delight it was to watch her sit on the edge of her seat in wonder, wearing her 3D glasses and trying to grab the things that came flying off the screen at her. At one point, she turned to me and said "you've gotta reach out, Mom! It's more fun!" So I did. I sat there with her, near the front of the theatre where everyone could see us, our arms stretched out in front of us, grinning from ear to ear. We didn't catch anything, but we sure tried.
That little piece of wisdom has stuck with me since then. "You gotta reach out! It's more fun!"

That does sound like more fun! The way my eyes are, I can't see things in 3D. I've never really felt sad about that until now...
That sounds like fun - and very wise words from a little girl (even if she didn't know it!)
Abby's desire to kick the screen doesn't seem quite as fanciful.
ha ha ha ha. I think I'd like going to movies with Maddy.
