Uncle Isaiah was in town, Jess had a day pass from the hospital and it was Sunday so Mimi, and Uncle Nic came with us as well.
Some of you may know, I have adopted a new philosophy to life: No Expectations. The more I realized that I was putting expectations on everything in my life, the more frustrated and sad I became that nothing and no one was able to live up to my ideas of how it should go in my mind. Therefore, the new philosophy was born!
As it relates to this story; I had no expectations of how Nash would react to something that Isaac and I enjoy so much: Movies! I figured, there is a chance that he will like it for ten minutes and then want to wander outside the theater or roam around and see how everyone else was enjoying the movie. As luck would have it, he absolutely loved the entire experience! As soon as the film started playing he was completely transfixed on the massive screen. Of course, we had movie popcorn and he delightfully ate a piece of popcorn every few moments throughout the entire movie. (He's his dad's son) He would dig his little fist in the bucket and munch as he smiled and laughed at all the great scenes. I hardly remember any of the movie myself because I was so wrapped up in how much he was enjoying his two year old self. I dare say one of the best things about being a parent is watching your children experience the things that you loved or still love.
All in all it was a great first experience and I can't wait to make it a regular family event.
