Since there is little else to do, we have been streaming all kinds of holiday flicks. Some I have seen every year for forever, like a Charlie Brown Christmas. Some I have never seen, and most, I haven’t seen in a long time, such as Miracle on 34th Street. I turned it on (the version with the cute little girl that played Matilda) and watched intermittently with Liv who was drawing on their IPad. Hopefully this isn’t a spoiler for you, but somewhat near the end, the guy asks her mother to marry him with a very sparkly diamond ring. This is the moment that Wes tuned in. A minute or so later he ran screaming from the living room - Wes is fervently against the concept of marriage- I think it is PTSD from a moment on third grade when he “married” his classmate Phoebe on the playground at recess and got a detention, it took us two years to understand that when Wes says “married” he means “kiss”. Anyway, if we want to make Wes get all out of sorts, we pretend to make obnoxious kissy noises. Once in a while we forget he is in the room and he catches is actually kissing. It used to be kind of funny the way he would run to avert his virgin eyes, but now it can lead to a full melt down. Anyway, I took the photo above the second time he popped up during this movie… yup, right at the end, when they kiss inside their new home!

We took these while working on our Home Alone Keven faces.

It was hard to hold still enough for my camera to process in the dark!
