they sure do start 'em young...

they sure do start 'em young...

i was simply walking around the house a couple of days ago when, from the corner of my eye, i spotted my little niece, 3 year old maxine, seemingly morose. being the loving ninong that i am, i immediately walked over to her to see what the matter was and was surprised to see her staring straight at the television set on the verge of a full-on bawling fest. what was even more alarming was what she was watching that was giving her such deep sorrow.

no it wasn't a horror film scaring her to death nor was it some heavy drama flick playing with her emotions. and no it wasn't even her older brothers teasing her by changing the channel while she was watching the power rangers in action (although it is the most common tv related incident that makes her cry). so what was it that was making her cry?

well, you wouldn't even believe me even if i told you. but nevertheless, i still will. of all things on television that was making her all emotional, she was watching...


project runway!

yep, albeit it being the first season (there are already two), my little maxine is apparently heavily into the show! so much so that she waits eagerly for it and religiously watches it every time it comes on! plus, she cries every time one of the designer contestants gets eliminated from the show... which is... uh... every episode! so needless to say, she cries every time she watches the show! isn't that simply adorable!?!

so just to leave you guys with a little bit of what i witnessed, here's a pic of maxine just as she was about to weep for one of them eliminated
project runway contestants. enjoy...
