My just turned 2 year old daughter can correctly identify 10 Star Wars figures that are hanging on my wall.

*sniff*

Unfortunately, the Darth Vader that plays the Imperial March song had to be removed and put away because it freaks her out.

This would turn my proud moment into a sad one :(

I've got a 2 year old daughter who can beat adults more often than not in a game of Memory. Near the end when she's ahead, she'll help you find matches. I think it's just because she feels sorry for you.

I think she had a bad dream. She was fine with it until yesterday morning and then she snapped and started crying when she saw it in the morning.

At least it is not Darth Vader because she is fine with the Vader statue.

My daughter will be 3 in November, and not only has she seen the original Trilogy, she can hum the entire Imperial March pitch perfect and every day asks me to play the "Darth Vader" song. It's important that we indoctrinate...er, teach them these important things early in life. Keep up the good work!

My daughter (2 in November) gets really excited when I turn on ESPN or any sports game, and always has to come sit down and watch it with me. Gotta train 'em right!

Hey...you gotta admit that there was a certain logic to the Empire over the Republic. The Empire was vastly more efficient and stable.

My wife was visiting her sister and asked if I'd take our 3 year old daughter out to let her pick out a backpack. I was "suggested" that she might like the Tinkerbell one.

Our daughter has aniridia, and her vision is pretty poor, so normally she likes things with bright colors. The Tinkerbell backpack was greenish and she didn't seem interested in that...so she saw the pink Princesses one and wanted it.

As we were going down the aisle, there was a small set up of Colts stuff, with a backpack. She pointed, so I held up the Colts one with the Princess one.

She said, "I want the Colts." I was very proud. My wife is convinced I rigged it, but I even asked her twice more before leaving if she wanted the Princess one instead and she said no.


My son's pride moment came when he visited my classroom. I have mini pennants of all the teams across the top of the chalkboard. He named all 32 the other day.

Whateever. I have a 7 week old son who can projectile vomit like crazy, on a fairly regular basis at times. There has to be some type of league to enter him in for this right?

My two-year-old daughter cried on Monday because there wasn't going to be any football on that afternoon.

Also, she knows this:
