Scary Nemo

While watching "Finding Nemo" in Italian Ava got scared for the first time. I was in the kitchen preparing dinner and put the movie on to keep her away from the stove and knives. During the first few minutes she started crying and getting upset because of the barracuda. She recovered quickly from that so I continued cooking. A few minutes later the same thing happened when the sharks enter the movie. This time she was reaching out to me and very upset, so I cleaned my hands and held her. After a few minutes she calmed down, but I had to sit with her until Rich got home. I was surprised because she has never been scared before.

Finding Nemo was the first movie we ever took Nathan to see. It freaked him out. He spent the majority of the movie pinned to my shoulder, burying his face. We'd convince him that everything was okay and then something else scary would happen. He finally gave up. For the boy who couldn't even take angry voices on Thomas the Tank Engine episodes, it was a little much--but Ava strikes me as a young lady who won't be scared of much.
