My Padawan Learner




Now that Josh has symbolically taken down his first chipmunk, I though warrior should be added to the titles of hunter and gatherer. So, Sherri and I went out and bought light sabers for training purposes. This week, Sherri's sister and her two girls are staying with us because Aaron is on a mission's trip. Allison, Hannah, and Grace (Sherri's niece) are at day camp and we have Josh and Paige (other niece) at home. Paige is 1 1/2 to Josh's 2 1/2 but Paige may have the weight advantage. I think the training is coming along quite nicely!

Does Paige look like Carrie or what? Oh my word!!

I am glad that you are taking your Jedi responsiblities seriously Matt. Teaching them at such an early age is key!

I couldn't agree with Kelli more... this early training for Josh is going to return some spectacular results.

One suggestion: Closed-toe shoes (perhaps a boot or cross-trainer). I would hate to see a stubbed toe bring Josh down. I mean, thanks to the Incredibles, we all know not to wear capes when saving the world.

Closed-toe-shoes? Where I come from, the Jedi fought in bare feet! I do agree however, with the whole no cape thing (Ironic that our family watched the Incredibles last night). Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes.
