This morning, he sat in this run, silently watching a movie I put on. He was enthralled! The title of the film... The Velveteen Rabbit!
I don't know if it'll beat his all time favourite - Keeping Up Appearances - but as far as movies go, he loves this one.
I have already found something...
- Peter Rabbit 2
I can't wait to see this.
Claire and I will definitely be making a trip to the cinema for this one. I wonder if we'll be allowed to bring Roman...
