The Bachelor

No... not this Bachelor







But THIS Bachelor... and the Bobby Soxer



This afternoon while I was searching the DVR for the requested episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, the TV was on Turner Classic Movies. So as I scrolled through the recorded list I was swooning for Cary Grant in the tiny inset picture in the corner of the screen.  I have loved Cary Grant for as long as I can remember.  Something about him...
And then it happened!
Campbell said, "Mommy, I like this show."  And she sat down in her chair.
Fast as I could, I ditched the recorded list.
"This show?"  I asked?
"Yep.  I like him,"  she said very matter of factly.

I swear to you, she is EXACTLY what I ordered!  Three years old?  Cary Grant?  Shopper?  Fashionista?  She totally ROCKS!


And, Hootie will attest to Campbell's comedic timing... but this is almost too much:
If you've never seen the movie, you simply must.  I insist.
Anyway, we get to the famous You Remind Me of a Man scene, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lfv1Jx3_PRs 
And then Campbell turns to me and says, "Mommy, YOOOOOOU remind MEEE of a man."
Of course, I laugh.  Then she says, "Now Mommy, You a-pposed to say a joke part about a man... because mans have lots of joke parts!"

Cross my heart.  Swear.
She is a funny kid!
Peace out & past my bedtime!
Campbell's Mom

Not surprising that Campbell has her mommy's quick wit & sense of humor and from the looks of it Stratton has some Cary Grant good looks, he's by far the most handsome guest at her tea party :)
