Big People

While cleaning out old movies, we came across 3 videos of that featured Fisher Price's Little People. They came with some of Ollie's toys, but he hadn't watched them and didn't know they existed.

While waiting to exit our house, Ollie discovered them in the pile. Of course he had to watch them. This one viewing led to 20 million more consecutive viewings. He watched them so many that 2 of the tapes were eaten in the VCR and the third wouldn't play. After throwing them away, he cried for his 'Big People' movies.

We did what any normal parent would do, we bought him 2 more, but this time on DVD. Now all is right in the world of movie watching. That is until we tell him that he can't watch them anymore. The tears ensue and much unhappiness is had, until he gets distracted.

I don't know how he will survive the Christmas trip without his 'Big People' movies. He may out grow them by then and move onto his next fascination to annoy his parents.
