Back when #1 Daughter was a little girl, we would sit down as a family to watch a movie.  We never owned a Television, so we would watch on a computer or sometime a little later we did have a TV that we hooked up to a VHS (see, a looooong time ago).  We didn’t have any cable and were unable to receive any stations so it was strictly VHS stuff.

This was pre-Netflix days.

The kids (#1 Daughter and #1 Son) liked to watch “scary” movies.  It was pretty tame stuff but it had the thrill factor for them seeing as they were so little.

We would be watching the show, (it didn’t matter how many times we would have seen a particular movie) and a scary part would pop up.  Once that scary part arrived, that is when #1 Daughter went into action…

See, she would get really, really scared.  When the Boogey man showed up, she would jump up, run in circles and scream, “Eeeeeeekkkk!!!” and run out of the room.  She would then stand around the corner and ask if the scary part was done yet.  She demanded to know what was happening in the movie.  When it was all clear, she would come back into the room and we would all resume watching the show.

Pretty soon, here would come the Boogey man again and “Eeeeeekkkk!!!”  Away she would run and we would do it all over again.

We still chuckle about that.  Funny kid.  Great memories!

So, tonight we were watching Blue Bloods on Netflix.  I really, really like that show!!!  Tonight, though, it was intense.  Not scary.  Not gory~just very suspenseful!

The next thing I know, there I am walking out of the room.  I was not going “Eeeekkkk!!!”  Nope.  I was saying, “Oh!  This is very bad.  He’s going to be in so much trouble!”  Etc.

I found myself around the corner asking if it was over and what was happening.  #1 Son and MFH (My Favorite Husband) were laughing at me!  Can you believe that!?!

Well, now we know where #1 Daughter got it, huh?
