The Magic of Cinderella

Today was the first time in a long while that we watched Cinderella. Aoife and I are still recovering from nasty colds so Emmy benefits in the TV watching. Emmy loves Cinderella and we had watched it so much that I think we overdosed at some point. She pulled it out of the DVD cabinet today and asked to watch it. From the moment it started, Aoife and Emmy were transfixed. I think it was the quietest hour and a half that we have had in months. They sat curled up together on the couch with their eyes glued to the TV. Every once in a while Aoife would ask Emmy a question and Emmy would answer and then they would go back to watching. It is strange to realize that Aoife is getting old enough to understand things more and more. It was also really nice to see them enjoying being together!
