Shark Obsession.




My kids love sharks. It started when Noah started asking last year to be able to watch Jaws for his seventh birthday. After much debate, and much persistance on his part, we decided to let Matt watch it with him. And so the obsession began. Ella caught on to it.



Currently, I think we own every book out there for kids that is about sharks. The kids got Shark themed Easter baskets and are regularly seen sporting one of their shark temporary tattoos. They have stuffed sharks, plastic sharks, and regularly act out shark attacks between "Jaws" and the plastic "Free Willy." We've watched almost every shark documentary. And Ella's favorite movie is Soul Surfer.



When we found out Matt was going to get to go deep sea fishing while we were on vacation, the kids just knew Matt would catch a shark. AND HE DID!!! He caught a two foot Atlantic Shark. I'm waiting for a blown up version of this picture to arrive in the mail and will frame it for the kids room. Just one more reason their daddy is their hero!
