On our first date, Paul and I discussed a variety of topics. We both knew the relationship would probably work when we discovered that we are both pretty big SciFi geeks.
Our kids are well on their way to being little SciFi geeks too.
Its not uncommon to hear the strains of The Imperial March echoing through the house (they have it on the iPad) while two young {padawans} battle it out with light sabers (they create their own sound effects too) in the play room.
Aaron cannot wait for the new Star Trek movie to come out and loves The Avengers, he has an Iron Man figurine that goes with him everywhere.
Faith will often clutch a towel around her neck and run, fist in the air, shouting Superman, around the house. She also shows you that Superman can shoot out his eyes, she leans her head forward and squints.
These are the moments that make my geek mama heart proud.
Hahaa, I’d laugh so hard if I saw Faith going squint like that – so cute man. I remember my brothers and I asking for red and blue towels to wrap around our necks so that we could jump off the back of my mom’s couches as Superman. I also used to clump little balls of sand and pretend I was crushing rocks, just like Supergirl.
I love that you and Paul are raising little geek kids. I plan to do the same 🙂
Isn’t it just lovely, when our children have the same interests as we, their parents 🙂
I love it though.
Very cute – proud moments indeed
