Ty's latest obsession is with the old Star Wars movies. He loves the starships and thinks that Yoda is funny. And oddly enough, he has developed a strong affinity for Darth Vadar- who I remember when I was little- scared the crap out of me. But scary or no- Ty just loves him- though he calls him Darth the Vadar and will quickly correct you if you leave out "the." Anyway- we were saying our prayers last night, and I was helping him remember what to say when all of a sudden he interrupts me and says, "Thank-you Heavenly Father for Darth the Vadar." Okay people- try to keep a straight face when your three year old all of a sudden decides that he is so thankful for this big scary man and goes so far as to include him in his prayers. I tried not to laugh. I tried not to giggle- but needless to say- a little snort snuck out. Ty whipped his head around and told me "Mama- stop laughing during the prayer. You are NOT being reverent." Okay. I was dying. After the prayer I had to apologize to Ty for laughing. I'm still not sure that he has entirely forgiven me.

I laughed out loud at that one. What a cutie. I love to have Drew say the prayers.. he usually just repeats what I say, so I am looking forward to him adding in stuff! Too cute.
Oh man! He is so dang cute!
It still makes me laugh that he went from Elmo to Darth the Vadar!
Oh my gosh, this is the cutest story. What a cute little one.
By the way, thank you for all your encouragement lately. You are such a darling friend. Next time your in Salt Lake give me a call, I'd love a little time to catch up with you and meet your little ones.
That is awesome! Why are you laughing at his prayers? I think he is right on the money, Darth the Vadar needs all the prayers he can get!! :) When is he going to come see the puppy and the fish (and the boring old people that live there too)?
