Jack's favorite movie is "The Miracle." You know, the movie about the 1980 Olympic Hockey Team. He watches it every day and plays hockey in our family room on the tile. He has identified with certian players in the movie. Michael Eruzioni is the captain of the team. Jack refers to Will as Little Eruzioni. He literally will only refer to Will as little Eruzioni. He calls himself Johnson (the Johnson character is the big goal scorer in the movie). It's a little frustrating because sometimes when you are talking to him, he won't respond. He won't respond, he won't respond, he won't respond. Then I remember, and call him Johson and he immediately responds to whatever I said.
The funniest part of it all is that througout the movie, I have to have a whistle hanging out of my mouth. I'm unloading the dishwasher and there's a whistle in my mouth. I'm cooking dinner, there's a whistle in my mouth. I'm going to the bathroom, and there's a whistle in my mouth. Because everytime Jack yells, "AGAIN!" I have to blow the whistle. I also have to yell, "Hustle, hustle," "pick'em up, pick'em up," "blue line back, red line back, blue line back, goal line back. " He also will take little brakes in the corner of the room (pretending he's in the huddle), and then out of nowhere, he yells "USA," and then returns to his hockey playing ways.
Will is totally in on the action. When Jack picks up his gear and puts his bike helmet on, Will runs for his hockey stick. They even have a face off where Jack drops the puck between them and Will stars swinging his hockey stick trying to compete with his big brother. They are insane! I definitely didn't sign up for boys!
