Hannah Montana

Liar? Pretender? Or just misunderstood?
Kim and Maya went to see the Hannah Montana movie last night. Maya woke up yesterday morning giddy as could be, and as soon as she got off the bus it was, “Is it time to go see Hannah Montana yet?”
They had to leave early to get seats….so it was just the boy and me at home (a friend stopped by for him to play with for awhile).
He wasn’t jealous, but in typical autistic fashion, he needed to know what time they’d be home, etc…but I just wanted to make sure….
Jerry: Demetrius, did you want to see the movie?
Demetrius: No.
Jerry: Demetrius, you never watch it home, do you like Hannah Montana?
Demetrius: No.
Jerry: Really, you don’t like it? Why?
Demetrius: She’s pretending.
First I thought I might have to discuss acting…but he ’s never questioned that before…then I got it. She switches from Hannah to Mylie in the show. So I tried to explain it to him. I don’t think I hit the ball out of the infield, as they say, in this case.
Demetrius: Oh. She is pretending in the show. She is not lying. Can we watch SpongeBob now?
Well….. different strokes for the different kids in the house….

Hannah’s big, but no SpongeBob….
I am still trying to figure out the Hanna thing. Maizie has it totally figured out and I love to ask her to explain it to me over and over again. She screams, “Oh!!!!! Mom!!!!!! Listen really careful. I will explain it one more time!” Very cute. We have not seen the concert in theatres which is heart breaking since M is still so sick. She looks at me whenever she sees the commercial and I say, “Don’t worry it will be on DVD real soon!”
I hope they enjoyed the show. Cheaper than the real concert!
