a lesson in 3D

So my nephew spent the night with me last night. I had decided already that we were going to see a movie today. And I had decided to let him decide on which movie we would see. There were three chioces. Madagascar ~ Herbie ~ Sharkboy & Lavagirl.
I was hoping he would pick the first, maybe the second. Definitely any of them but the third. But it was his choice and I was going to honor it. No matter what. Guess which one he picks?
Yep, being the eight-year old boy that he is. Sharkboy & Lavagirl won.
And you know what? I am so glad that he did.
The movie was awesome. Everything about it. The whole experience was such a light spot in my otherwise dark life.
It has been years, well I guess since chidhood that I have seen a 3D movie. And honestly, I can't ever remember seeing one in the theaters. It was such a blessing to watch my nephew view one for the first time. The boys got Sharkboy glasses and the girls got ~ yep you guessed it Lavagirl glasses.
And the message in the movie ~ I would recommend to anyone. Parent, child, adolescent, or even single adult. I am so glad he picked it out. It is about holding on to your dreams. Despite what others tell you. And it is written from a child's perspective. Which makes it all the more better.
So if anyone is reading this ~ (hi & thanks) Take the time to watch this movie. Especially if you have a younger one that would enjoy it. I promise it will be time well spent.
