How sweet. For a love of books and learning?

“Because I get to tell people to be quiet.”

Apparently this power was no longer enough for him. I stared open-mouthed when Tommy proclaimed in third grade that he wanted to join the Army. Until he specified,

“The clone army.”

God bless Star Wars.

He has a cold and he’s also having a hard time adjusting to the new schedule – he naps, and then he can’t go to sleep at night, and then he gets up late, and then he won’t nap and he’s exhausted by 7:00…

Anyway, he just woke up and I asked him (as I always do), “What did you dream about?”

“Darth Vader was chasing me.”

“Oh no! Were you scared?”

“No.”

“Really? I would have been scared.”

“Grandpa was holding my hand.”
