"Donkey's a good guy"

McKenna continues to entertain me!! She and I spent the weekend alone - Darrell was in Dallas for work and Jadelyn is still in MN visiting my mom and dad. We had a nice laid back girls weekend - shopping, eating out, playing with the dogs, and watching movies. This was the first time she really sat down and watched a movie. (she's never really been interested in TV unless it's to watch a hunting or fishing show with Daddy) We watched Toy Story and she liked it a lot. Then we tried Shrek...she has a love/hate relationship with Donkey. I'm not sure where it came from, but she suddenly freaked out when she saw a Shrek 3 commercial a couple months ago. She WANTS to like him, but everytime we'd see him on a commercial or at McDonald's, she'd get a bit scared. So we've been telling her that Donkey is a good guy and he's not scary at all. Up until this past weekend, she'd say she wanted to watch Donkey but as soon as we started putting it in, she'd change her mind. I finally got her to watch it with me and she was glued to my side for the first 20 mins or so...then she finally relaxed and enjoyed the movie. I think her love/hate is leaning more towards the love side right now, but we're not going to push it.
