If you knew me in the 1990s – you knew I was obsessed with the movies Terminator and Terminator 2. I brought T2 posters to college and those were what I was hanging up as I met my roommate for the first time. When Evan turned 4 I decided to let him watch the first 5 minutes of Terminator 2 and nothing beyond that. Since then, we often play “Terminator” which usually results in me scaring him while making Terminator noises. Yesterday I found an iPhone app which can take a headshot of a person and turn it into a Terminator looking person.
I took the photo, then showed Evan. He was half intrigued and half scared as he told me:
“I have never seen the laser in my eye before”
He promptly looked in the mirror and started pressing on his face and looking into his eye. I cannot wait until he is old enough to actually watch the Terminator (minus Terminator 3) movies. I know he will be scared to death but also love them!
