Boys will be boys

Kid3 idolizes his big sister.  He absolutely adores both Kid1 and Kid2, but Kid1 is the sibling he most wants to be like.  So it wasn't that big a surprise when he started asking to watch The Little Mermaid when we offered to turn on a movie - it's one of her favorites, and she's one of his favorites.

The other day, Kid3 came up to me holding Sleeping Beauty, and asked to watch it.  I turned it on and chuckled to myself at my rough-and-tumble boy who loves princess movies.

About 10 minutes into the movie, he turned to me and said as indignantly as a two year old can "NO, Mama. Dis movie not good.  Where da dwagon and lava go?"

Upon second glance at the movie cover, he was interested in the dragons and fire, not the princess.

Boys will be boys, I guess.

We turned on The Little Mermaid instead.
