at the Leichardt Palace Cinemas we saw

this movie.

Mason cried (twice).

Maya perched foxy-loxy to enjoy the show on her lap.

Michaela was taken out 6 (SIX!) times for unseemly behaviour. She was made to sit in the foyer facing the wall and think about her sins. It didn't work. The noisy behaviour was repeated six times.

(Secretly, I thought some scenes were breathtakingly beautiful, but the narration was clumsy and overbearing.)

Which is okay because we all went for FREE because I won a preview pass. And yesterday, I won a competition for a family pass for the Australian Reptile Park. It was a 25 words or less thing and I wrote a small (very small) poem about my children keeping spiders in jars on the windowsill and beside their beds. I thought it was rather clever and it did the trick! They will love me forever.
