I know I already posted these pics on Facebook, but not everybody here is also there. Plus, I was looking at them earlier today and realized there is more about these pics that I like than was raised on Facebook.
The short version is that Thomas was recently invited to a Star Wars birthday party, so we put together a fairly simple Jedi costume and I bought him a lightsabre (red was all the shop had, so don’t read too much into it). The two pics were taken of him in his costume shortly before we went to the party. I like the obvious Sith vs Jedi division of the pics, but I really like the way one picture shows him trying to look like a powerful Jedi while the other is just a very sweet little boy, excited and happy about his costume and to be going to a birthday party.

And here is a bonus picture that did not appear on Facebook. For those who enjoyed Dexter’s Lab, I defy you to see this picture and not think of Dexter and Dee Dee. |
just don't let the force confuse the poor dears like it did luke and Leila.
ReplyDeleteAwwww.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you're bringing the lad up properly!
Edited to add: should I send a couple of my infamous home-made foam lightsabers - perfect for non-painful but exceptionally destructive in-home duelling?
That would be awesome, but save it until we get back. Otherwise it's just more stuff we have to catalog, pack and unpack. The return, it looms.
ReplyDeleteAw, he looks so cute.
ReplyDeleteI love how you're raising your kids.
