Charlie Chaplin's Birthday

April 16 is Charlie Chaplin's birthday.  The kids celebrated by watching a Charlie Chaplin movie.  The older kids were nice enough to read the words that went with the silent film for the younger.

Charlie Chaplin's Birthday

April 16 is Charlie Chaplin's Birthday.
The kids and I brainstormed ideas for a silent movie to make together later.  Nichole had to prepare herself to get in the Hollywood creative spirit.

After most of the kids went to bed, I sat down to start watching a Charlie Chaplin film.  Lucky came up and wanted to sit on my lap.  It was so cute. 
We got some Charlie Chaplin/Buster Keaton films a few (more than 10) years ago and I finally got around to opening the packaging on the Charlie Chaplin movies tonight.  One thing about silent films, you just can't multi-task while watching them.  I can't work on a craft or sort socks when I can't hear the dialogue to tell me what's going on.  Sigh.
