I watched the movie on May 17th. It happened to be on a Mom's Night Out with my friend. We found that no matter who you are, this movie will resonate with you as a mother. The movie is well done and so much fun! I laughed a lot, and enjoyed the moments of sweet sentiment.
ReplyDeleteThis is a movie that has little "take homes" that you will never forget.
I still haven't seen it but want to. My friend Tisha would be fun to watch it with.
ReplyDeleteSome of my mom friends from church went about a week ago, but I couldn't manage childcare so that I could join them.
ReplyDeleteWe (other Mom friends from church) went to see it the second Sunday afternoon it was out. My favorite part... where Sean Astin keeps 'relocating his shoulder'... because Moms rend to do that kind of thing to keep trucking through & it was funny to see the Dad do it this time.
ReplyDeleteI got to see it with you! I loved seeing a movie about my life with someone who gets my life. ;)
ReplyDeleteI have not been to see the movie. I would love to see this with my mom, my MIL, or any of my sisters (SILs, too). - Lori H
