Mommy-Wan Kanobe

Aidan was invited to a "Jedi training" birthday party. He has been looking forward to this for at least a week, and had a wonderful time learning to use "the force."

After coming home, I noticed red frosting all over his face and asked what color the cake was. It went something like this. . .

Master Mama - What kind of cake?
Padawan Aidan - it was a light sabor cake!
Master Mama - was it red?
Padawan Aidan - Yes!
Daddy - Guess how she knew it was red, Aidan. . .
Padawan Aidan - (with all seriousness, and wide eyes) She must have used the force!

Ah yes, the FORCE! I plan on working on my Jedi mind tricks tomorrow. . . With a wave of my hand. . . "you will clean your room without complaining." "You enjoy all of your mothers cooking and wish to thank her for her troubles." Oh, it could be a beautiful thing!

When you master how to use the force with your children, can you please teach me!
