Since we live far from our extended\u00a0families, we don&#8217;t have young relatives to take to the movies. With that said, let me also add that my husband and I do not miss seeing the cartoon movies when they\u00a0come out&#8230; We happen to (still) enjoy them!<\/p>\n<p>The latest cartoon movie that we saw was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B001ECQ75A\/?&amp;tag=httpwwwmarkes-20\">Kung Fu Panda<\/a>, and we both enjoyed it immensely. I should probably have premised this paragraph by saying that I was in a lousy mood the night we watched it&#8230; At first I told my husband that I didn&#8217;t want to watch Kung Fu Panda that night because I didn&#8217;t want to &#8220;waste a good movie on a bad mood.&#8221; (Does that make any sense?!) But then I decided&#8230; since I am in a bad mood, why not try the movie and see if I can shake it (the bad mood, not the movie!) And, sure enough, that&#8217;s what the movie did!<\/p>\n<p>It was absolutely a delightful movie romp&#8230; watching the under-dog (in this case the &#8220;dog&#8221; is the panda) work, work, work, until he triumphs. Jack Black does a wonderful job voicing Po, the overweight Panda who is given a task so large that most of us would not accept it, knowing that it would be impossible to achieve. Dustin Hoffman rivals David Carradine&#8217;s &#8220;Master&#8221; on the old Kung Fu television series. (Remember all of the &#8220;Grasshopper&#8221; talk?!)<\/p>\n<p>Our daughter has seen the movie several different times, with different people, and she highly recommended it to us. We usually enjoy her recommended movies, and this one surely didn&#8217;t disappoint. We loved Kung Fu Panda. If you get a chance to see it, go ahead&#8230; (DON&#8217;T!!!) act your age, and enjoy it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know that I have written about my two children from time to time&#8230; Our son is 24 and\u00a0our daughter is 22.
