Imagination

We have always tried to encourage Ben's imagination so tonight was just so much fun. As many of you know, he is currently obsessed with Star Wars, the Clone Wars. Tonight he spent the night teaching me what it takes to be a Jedi Knight. So handstands, somersaults and fancy karate moves were the exercise of the evening. In order to switch characters of the training, Ben would spin around and say the name of the new character. So far tonight he has been Anakin, Obi Wan, R2D2, battle droid, Ahsoka (because he wanted to carry the Rocca, the baby hutt, in his backpack) and spider droid.

It is so hard not to laugh because it brings so much joy to see how he plays and uses his imagination. At the end of all of this fun will be bed times stories of Star Wars.

What fun!

Peace to all who read this blog today and everyday.
