Lord of the Rings

I started watching the Lord of the Rings movie with Soen while Sadie was napping. It's been a rather nice bonding experience and he's way into it. We've only managed to get about 40 minutes into the first movie over two showings. Today, right when Sadie woke up it was at the first really intense part of the film, when Frodo first puts the ring on and the Eye of Sauron spots him. Since Sadie was walking in at that point we stopped it. But that little glimpse really caught her attention. She couldn't stop talking about it for about 15 minutes--egged on by Soen, who was trying to fill her in on all the details. Anyway, she kept asking me questions about it and so I ran to get my camera because I thought it was funny how fascinated she was by the three second glance she got and by Soen's retelling. So here's the Lord of the Rings as told by Sadie.

Interesting that Sadie is so focused and intent (while Soen is doing a strip tease.....!) Have you tried Shakespeare?

Totally off the subject of our genius children, Sadie's hair looked adorable!
