I'm sure that the majority of you are familiar with the popularity,and like about every other mom in the states i have been victim to the ear shattering screech and uncontrolled hyperventilating that our girls seem to experience at the mere mention of the word twilight.
Now I can't say that I haven't seen the movies, but in my opinion the books are much better, and I am not forced to endure the mediocher acting of Robert Pattingson or Kristin Stewart.
I have been dreading the release of Eclipse for months now. Listening to the fighting that ensued as Heily was compelled to rewind the commericals on our dvr again and again. Her cheeks flush with that clear evidence of the that little girl crush blush. Glassy eyes, sighing, "oh mom i can't wait."
I've tried to impress on her the importance of reading the books,mostly because she needs the boost to her vocabulary. Secondly, because the movies are so much different tan the books and they are not true to sequence. She was constantly asking me questions like "Mom, did that really happen?" To which i felt compelled to reply the answer is sitting at home on your books shelf.
Even through all the taunting and teasing from her father and brothers, she's remained an avid fan. I guess this means I will be obligated to take her to the theatre sooner or later to showing. Pray for me and hope the theater doesn't implode when they next see Jacob without his shirt
I so feel for you.
