Jedi Daddy



Just imagine for a moment that the thing you love most in the world is Star Wars. You love everything about the characters and the costumes and the weapons and the ships. All your friends feel this way too. Now, add the fact that YOUR Dad can build light sabers from scratch. REAL ones. Ones that light up and change colors and are the perfect size and shape. It is just magic to watch Finn and Jack sit together and build these things. Finn stands in rapt attention as Jack meticulously puts all the teeny, tiny pieces together. They work in starts and fits with multiple trips to the garage, the closet, the recycling bin. Then, voila, another light saber is born. I married the coolest guy on the planet. Lucky me, lucky Finn.

I think you have five brothers waiting to play with you. Buses and trains have become Ben's mode of travel. You guys are living parellel lives, I think.
