A conversation wherein a certain 6-year-old proves his parentage...
"Those, those are the New York Yankees, and they're the bad guys."
"They're the bad guys? The New York Yankees? That's a funny name."
"Yes. No matter who they are playing, today it's the Chicago White Sox, we're against the Yankees. They're the bad guys."
"Who are we for? Who are the good guys?"
"The Red Sox, but they aren't playing today."
"Do you know what team I like?"
"What?"
"I like Star Wars."

So does my husband. Team Star Wars all the way.
We have similar conversations, but substitute "Utes" for "New York Yankees."
Oh yeah, boo on Yankees.
Glad to see you're teching him the right things...Star Wars! Thanks for the great laugh!
Booooooo!
I've always maintained Star Wars is the best team. Very versatile too. Baseball? Star Wars. Duck Hunting? Star Wars. Mom of the Year? Star Wars. Competitive Eating? You guessed it.
I'm glad to see he's being taught proper baseball.
Solution: sign him up for t-ball.
We are team Star Wars in our house too!
Yesterday he says to me, "I've seen a lot of Star Wars. I've seen the first one and the second one and... Have you seen any Star Wars?"
"I've seen the original ones, four through six."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, they made those ones, four through six in the eighties. They made the first three when I was in high school, I haven't seen those ones."
"That must have been before they were Star Wars."
Yes yes good girl. That needs to be taught very very young.
I know I never comment anymore, but I just came across this website and thought of you. http://www.modmidmod.com/category/arapahoe-acres/ lots of midcentury goodness
Every blog post reaffirms my belief that we are kindred spirits! Go Red Sox, or anyone who is playing the Yankees!
Is Captain Picard on Team Star Wars? How about the gang from Firefly? If so, then I'm a fan, too.
I like Star Wars better than baseball too haha!
