Do you ever read something, or watch something and think- "what a character!" I do this alot and one of my favorite books and movies is "To Kill a Mockingbird" I absolutely love the characters and think of it often when I am doing certain things. Atticus Finch is an iconic father figure and I think of his character alot when disciplining my kids and telling them stories. I also really wanted to name my kids Atticus and Scout, but Thad wasn't to keen on those names ;) My all-time favorite character from the book is Scout though, and I can see a lot of her in my Elsie
Scout HATES wearing dresses and Jem (her brother) teases her on her first day of school bc she has to wear one. Elsie doesn't mind wearing dresses, but she wants to change into pants or shorts as soon as she can- Scout likes playing with the boys, Elsie very much likes playing with the boys and playing boy things, she really has never been interested in dolls or Barbies. She likes Hotwheels and Legos :) She loves to hunt bugs with Jude and would play outside all day if I let her. Elsie, on the other hand, isn't as stubborn as Scout, and her favorite color is pink :) But I think of Scouts character a lot when I think of how Els is and I have to say, I don't mind the comparison!
What character ( in literature or in the movies) do you love?
