The Disney Tradition

Isn't it a dream that once you have a child, you would want your kid to like all the stuff that you like? Of course you would want to have them form their own opinion and have them discover something on their own, but there is that one thing that you would want to have to have passed down to your kid. And their kid, and their kid's kid.Then you can proudly say that if you child ends up liking She's so Heavy ( I want you) by The Beatles, you can say, yeah that was my influence.
It is a fact that Brian and I are Disney fans. Pixar? Yes please? Classic Disney movies. We are right there. One of the things that binds Brian and myself is that we both grew up on Mary Poppins, and we seem to laugh at all the right moments.
That trait is now passed down to Jack. He loves watching it and mimics all moves that the penguins do in the Penguin Dance scene. He has only seen little clips of it online, but we cannot wait til he sees the whole movie. Because if he wants to see it over and over again, I would not mind.
Another trait that has been passed down is the love for the Disney classics. Lady and the Tramp, Bambi, Aristocats, Dumbo are all movies that we have shown Jack and he loved right away. All movies that I loved watching as a little kid , and in all the parts where I would go " awwww, so cute" he will now say the same thing.
Up next - Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. The Disney version, not the Tim Burton one. No offense Tim, but Johnny Depp would scare my kid in that he will never sleep in his own bed again.
