My mother-in-law’s birthday is today, and she loves receiving a grandchild-produced home movie as a present. Last year we made Sleeping Beauty — a stunner of backyard theatrics if ever there was one — but this year we decided on simpler fare.
Eleanor and William chose Coleen Salley’s adaptation of Epossumondas, a “noodlehead” tale.
I’m impressed by their performances. Ellie’s animal voices are for the win. And yeah, I held Katie in one arm while filming. If you notice jiggly camerawork, that’s Katie grabbing my hand.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering, yes that is real butter melted on Wimmy’s head. He had a bath directly afterwards.
