I had a crappy day at work yesterday, followed by a slightly exhausting early evening (Sophie had a friend over for "tea" which, in this context, means "after-school playdate that includes supper"), but the evening was completely redeemed when the five of us watched Little Miss Sunshine. Sweet, funny, and unsentimental - it was wonderful. There are some parts which I wouldn't normally consider appropriate for a nine year old to watch, but, in the context of the movie, I don't think they were at all harmful to Sophie (or the older two, for that matter.) It's not often that we come across a film that the whole family loves, but this was one.

I like that definition of tea.

You know I dream of moving there one day and saying things like "tea and crumpets" and "poppycock"

My kids think it is hilarious.

We got Little Miss Sunshine in the mail last week from our NetFlix-like service and I think we will watch it tonight. I'm looking forward to it. :)

One of my very favorite movies of all time! I let my nine and seven year olds see it, too. Our whole family loves it.

We, too, loved 'Little Miss Sunshine'.
One of our top 10 this year.
