We got the soundtrack to Peter Pan the other day. I took the kids to see the play at the beginning of June, and they LOVED it...Naomi has sometimes been Wendy and "Twinkerbell" (her rendition of Tinkerbell) instead of Hello Dolly since then, so you can see how much she enjoyed it. The soundtrack was a big hit. By breakfast this morning, the girls had already listened to it through once and were halfway through it again.
Naomi has decided to rehabilitate Captain Hook. He's still a pirate, she says, but he's not a mean pirate any more. He's married and has 3 children. Coincidentally, two girls and a baby boy...Michael actually gets to be Captain Hook now (taking a break from Horace Vandergelder or Peter Pan). Naomi has spent a long time narrating Captain Hook's new life for me this afternoon. Hannah listened to parts and put in editorial commentary from time to time, but I got to listen to the whole thing. I finally had to tell her to stop talking so that she could eat some of her dinner.
Of course, she was singing (very quietly) "think lovely thoughts" after Communion at Mass this evening. I suppose that's fairly appropriate advice for that time, though.
