More exciting news

Joel has been nominated and chosen to receive a wish through Make-a-Wish! He was nominated by someone at the Children's hospital (I was surprised) and we'll soon have a visit from people who will talk to him about what his wish is!

You can guess it will have something to do with his favorite movies. Joel can quote movies and episodes of some cartoons all the way through, including the sound of light switches and all... he loves to act them out. Movies are his favorite thing, there's no getting around it. And, he loves to turn the pages of books-- big books, especially textbooks. He turns the pages and talks about his movies.

And he loves to watch movie trailers/previews on the "Pookater". This is how he gets used to the idea of watching a new movie; if he hasn't seen the preview several times then he has trouble accepting a new film. He also loves to watch little movies of himself over and over again on my blog. So I'm going to add a couple of his favorite links here so you can see where he likes to go...

Disney Pixar.

Dreamworks Animation.

Veggie Tales.

It will be interesting to see what he wishes for!
