Apart from kiddie television, I have never really watched my TV while the boys are awake and in the house. A few weeks ago, we were enjoying a quiet Saturday afternoon at home. The boys were fully occupied playing a game with each other and I had some time to enjoy a moment of peace. I decided to watch a show and I dialed up Project Runway on the DVR.
One by one, the boys joined me to watch the show. They were transfixed by the clothes, by the designers and by the competition. At the end of the show, Aidan offered a guess as to who the week's winner was going to be. He was right. And they were hooked.
We have made our Project Runway sessions a little weekend ritual. Chris was oblivious to our ritual until dinner last week. Aidan proudly announced to the dinner table that he had not only once again accurately picked the week's winner (Irina), but he had also correctly surmised that Nicolas would be forced to go home.
I laughed and told Aidan he had a knack for fashion. Brennan shared his comments on his favorite outfits from the show while Griffin chimed in with his own opinions.
After a moment of listening to our Project Runway discussion, Chris shook his head and exclaimed, "That's it! We need to watch more hockey boys! HOCKEY. I think there's a game on tonight."
Project Hockey. It doesn't seem to have the same draw as the Runway.
