No. 1, the director

Finally, we’re to Child No. 1.

This kid can’t stop thinking about movies. Nearly every day, he tells me about the plot of a new movie he wants to make. He is constantly trying to recruit his siblings and neighbors to play roles in the movies in his mind.

Often the movies don’t make it to the production stage because we are just too busy to film them. But this week, he got out the video camera and recorded his movie. He also loves editing video in iMovie, and he has gotten really good at adding special effects and music.

I can’t wait to see what this kid becomes when he gets older.
