Saying yes to The Avengers

Last month, my contribution to the "Saying Yes" linkup on Christian Unschooling was a big one - we agreed for Sarah to have her own cell phone.

This month's is a little less earth-shattering.

I said yes to watching The Avengers with Chris and Sarah.

They'd seen it already - and had wanted me to watch it with them, but I just hadn't worked up much enthusiasm for it. I'm not particularly into comics, or superheroes, but I was familiar enough with the storyline to follow along, and you know what?

Turns out it was pretty fun - and I loved, loved, loved the Hulk, who I'm told I sometimes resemble, usually at the grocery store.

(You know the type: "I need 8 rolls of paper towels! These come in packs of 6 or 12! Arrrrrgh!" To which Chris will say to Sarah, "Uh-oh, Mommy's hulking out again.")

JOAN SMASH...

Though I admit, I'd prefer to look like the Black Widow, especially at tae kwon do... I probably look much more like the Hulk fumbling around than I do the woman with mad kicking skills, but hey, at least I try!

How have you said yes this week? Link up if you're writing about it!
