The Force is Strong with this One

Dear Peep Skywalker,
Mama's cousin Ricky wasn't able to make it to your party but he dropped off a light saber and super hero decals to Grandma P and Bahboo's.  I had to give this birthday present honorable mention.  Why?  It is the first thing you ask for when you wake up, you tell strangers in line at stores that you have a "real, working light saber at home", you challenge Daddy to duels and we can use this thing as leverage when you decide to act up!  

Your first night with your Jedi light saber you took it to bed with you.  After Daddy and I were ready for bed I came to check on you and found you sleeping outside of our bedroom door with it nestled beside you.  When I picked you up to put you back into your bed your sleeping arm clutched tighter to insure it traveled with you.  We've also been able to correct obstinate behavior by using phrases such as, "Jedi's are all about patience Henry." or "Jedi's are calm and in control of themselves Henry."  Paired with the ship Uncle Gary got you full fledged Star Wars mania is taking hold.  
We love seeing your imagination busting out.  Nothing makes us all geeky more than hearing you playing by yourself telling stories.  
Love, Mama

*Thanks cousin Ricky for being so thoughtful, sorry you and the kids couldn't make it to the party but we appreciate you thinking of our boy on his big #3.
