Peyton and I love going to the movies. When Peyton heard there was going to be a new Alice movie she wouldn't stop begging me to take her to Alice Through the Looking Glass . I had my reservations. I never did let Peyton see Alice in Wonderland because I knew the Jabberwocky would be too much for her. But I watched the trailers for Alice Through the Looking Glass and was positive there was no Jabberwocky. After talking with Peyton I found out what the real draw was for her, the baby ...
Movie
Captain America: Civil War
Over the past year, Peyton has become interested in super heroes. It all started with Spider-Man, then quickly grew to include Iron Man, Captain America and the Hulk. Last month I took Peyton to see Marvel Universe Live and that's when she fell in love with Black Widow, a female super hero who could kick some major butt. We ended up purchasing our first Black Widow doll that night and Peyton has not stopped talking about Black Widow since. When Peyton saw the trailer for Captian America: ...

He Named Me Malala
I am a highly educated woman living in the United States of America. My daughter started kindergarten this fall. She's already talking about college and all the fun she anticipates having in the years to come. For us this is normal. We send our daughter's to school without a second thought. We live in a country where girls are required to attend school or be homeschooled just as we require the boys. There are no separate rules for girls. We are fortunate that this mentality is our norm. Some are ...
Zootopia: A Place Where You Can Be Anything
Last night Peyton and I were lucky enough to get into a sneak peak of Zootopia! And when I say we were lucky I am not kidding. The place was packed! When we arrived an hour and a half before the start time the line had already formed. There were about 50 people ahead of us. And here I thought we were going to be the first ones there. Boy was I wrong. All the children in line were extremely excited to see Zootopia. Peyton has seen numerous trailers for the movie and her favorite character is ...
