Mamma Mia!!

NYC Broadway, originally uploaded by szachko.

Zozo has seen the movie, Mamma Mia more than 20 times. She likes the movie so much that we decided to choose the same story for her first Broadway show. Zozo stayed on the line about 90 minutes to get the tickets. She was exhausted but the love for this movie made her standup till we got the tickets. She was so excited to get into the theater and could not wait the show to start. However, At the beginning of the show, she kept shaking her head and said to herself: "This is not right, this is not right.." It turned out that Zozo was wondering why the girl on the stage was not the girl in the movie. Well, she got over it very soon and enjoyed the rest the show....

In old age, give good advice.
Then die, without regret."

Having planned to bring kids to MoMA for a while, I got the chance in this weekend. I had confidence that the big one will enjoy the trip but not quite sure the little one. Saturday in MoMA is mob. Lots of tourists in town. However, it is interesting to let kids to observe how people from different cultures appreciate arts. The little one started wondering around the art work and acting to be part of them by learning from people from different countries.
