A Day with Jonas

After reading this funny post from our friends' blog, I felt inspired to play with video editing. This video is long (over 3 minutes) and is my first attempt at using video editing tools. So...only watch the video if you are super interested in Jonas, otherwise you might get bored.

A few notes on the video if you do watch it -- you might notice that Jonas had some costume changes...it was a messy day for Jonas. Also, he was obsessed with the play microphone that day. In fact, at the park he walked over to another child's bike and used the handle bar as a microphone.

The jump rope scene does not do justice to how hard Jonas tried to jump rope after watching an older child at the park. I did not get his longer try on video. He is always eager to try to do what older children do. Shows me how powerful modeling is for kids.

There was a woman who spoke great English at the park and she told me that Jonas said the Japanese word for funny. Since I don't know this word, I never noticed.

Great video. The editing is worthy of an Independent Filmmaker's Award.

Jonas has grown-up so much since the last time we saw him, and he's a much better noodle slurper than Lincoln.
