He enjoyed watching with me because I quote ahead a line or 2, he said "I bet you were wishing to have sisters like this once you saw the film, in fact you probably tried to re-create every scene." I chuckled at him as the movie unfolded so many good memories of my life. I saw this movie in the theater then saved my money up in order to buy it and buy the sound track. I truly loved every scene and every sister. In my life at 15 years old I had 3 friends which made the 4 of us similar to the 4 sisters of this "Little Women." classic, I had read the book back when I was 13 years old so seeing the movie was very important to me. The 4 of us girls were truly full of imagination, emotions and creativity with individual talents we brought to our group a sisterhood so very much like this story.
As we watched this the day before Christmas my husband was soon lost in the delights and the story of family, when it ended he clapped and laughed at me as I bowed to him in my kitchen apron. A morning of baking to this beautiful movie made us both truly happy for the holidays together!
It came back to me how Tiffany was Jo, in her writing and in her acting she always wanted to play the boy, the man and the leader of our group. While Rebekah supported her completely in the same way Beth does, they were inseparable so different and so supportive of each other. While Jennifer was guarded and shy if not not simply private and holding to the rules of society, her sweetness and her wisdom was truly like Meg, I adored her high standards and her clever wit. While it's no argument to anyone who knows me that Amy who was so vibrant and honest was me, I saw myself in her through out this movie.
My husband laughed nodding his head "She even talks like you! She's a spit fire!" I stopped working in the kitchen to explain more "Amy and Jo often fight, they clash and they battle on in very much the same way Tiffany and I did so often while growing up. In all 4 sisters they admired and loved each other with endless devotion. These 4 women grow up to be very strong, in knowing no matter what that they are there for each other. When Bekah came to visit this fall she said the very same thing as Tiffany and I with her over pie and coffee. Our Jen was heading out of town that day and couldn't meet with us yet we were there reminiscing, realizing we are still those 4 little women no matter how old we get. In fact we are made better in today's world having started out in such a truly good sisterhood like that. I watched this movie enjoying every detail that's so familiar and so important.
I also loved how my husband enjoyed the film too, how he could see which character I would of been and how funny it was that I knew every line by heart!

He smiled as the movie ended saying "That was so delightful! No wonder you believe in the power of sisterhood so much, it's such a happy place to live!"
