edward

that would be edward as in edward scissorhands, currently riley's favorite movie. every single night at about 7 we put it on and watch the same scenes. riley knows some of the dialogue too and knows what's going to happen and when ("she's going to play the piano," "he's cutting the doggy's hair," "he's eating a pea"). i don't know what it is about this movie that has riley so intrigued--she watches nothing else with this much intensity. tonite, while mike was out, i had to put spencer to bed while riley was still up. riley ALWAYS comes in the room, peaks in from the hall, opens and closes the door--"you like it like this?"--but not tonite because she was watching edward. it's really a sweet movie and totally kid friendly. come to think of it, riley is a big tim burton fan. last christmas we read the nightmare before christmas book, and she recently saw pee wee's big adventure--"francis was walking. he's mean." "pee wee jumped in the pool with his clothes." and yes, she's only 2 though with her tastes i'd say she's 12.
