Movie Theatres Have Booster Seats

Whaha! This child keeps us in perpetual awe. She informed us a few weeks ago that we should take her to see Shrek. I don't know, maybe she saw a commercial on TV or something, but she kept mentioning it. We were at a loss because we thought such an outing would be a disaster with her climbing on the seats, talking loudly, and wanting to leave twenty minutes into the show. As it turns out, not! She sat through the whole movie and only had to be reminded to lower her voice just a few times. The popcorn and candy helped keep her in her seat, and when Mark took her to answer the call of nature they returned with a second box of candy. Normally I would have frowned at such a bribe, but this was a special occasion. So we did it. She made it through her first movie like a true cinematic pro. What's next?
