On Saturday October 27th, Todd and I took the kids to the Chicago International Children's Film Festival. The "Would you like to Swing On a Star?" showing was at the Wilmette Theatre and featured Laura's Christmas Star (Germany 2006, 61 minutes) and four short films: The Adventures of Chi-Chi (Korea, 2007, 4 min), The Flying Girl (Germany, 2005, 5 min), Bear Factory (USA, 2006, 2 min), The Little Shooting Star (Germany, 2005, 6 min). The kids loved the movies. They got to dress up in their astronaut costumes for the event and got a lot of compliments. 
Maddie has the first Laura movie, "Laura's Star." It is about a girl rescues a fallen star who has lost one of its points. She helps it heal and they have magical adventures together. It is the perfect Maddie movie!

This is exactly why I miss Chicago. I wish I could have gone with you.
