Brianna Shows

Bree likes pretty much any cartoon these days...even those weird anime fighting ones that I'm sure make no sense to her. She calls cartoons "Brianna shows." She'll wander into the room and ask me "Mom, can I watch a Brianna show? Let's find a Brianna show." Of course, I don't really want her watching a lot of the cartoons for older kids so I keep a close eye on what's on (along with trying to watch less TV these days) and so instead we've been popping in videos. (Benefits being she doesn't see commercials for stuff she shouldn't have and I can control the length of time she watches better.) Well, one of the favorite "Brianna shows" the past week or so has been "Winnie the Pooh's Grand Adventure." (Her Valentine's Day present from Daddy.) It's a cute little show, appropriate for toddlers, like all Pooh Bear shows. But every time Bree watches it we both end up giggling. Bree's little sense of humor is coming out more and more. So there are certain parts of the show that strike her as funny, usually the parts involving repeated physical humor, like when Pooh is trying to say something and keeps stopping when acorns fall on his head over and over. Or, when Rabbit is trying to sleep and Tigger's tail keeps tickling his nose and making him laugh. When these segments come on Brianna laughs and it makes me laugh to hear her little carefree giggle and to know that she's finding stuff funny.
