Dear Darth Vader


So I thought of another funny moment with Gooby. Let me preface this entry with this, Gooby is TOTALLY obsessed with Star Wars. Darth Vader and Darth Maul and any other bad guys.


So one night at the dinner prayer, it was Goobys turn to say the prayer. This is how it went:


Dear Darth Vader, thankful for food, bless it, in the name of in the name of General Grievous Amen.


As soon as he said the first part, Rick and I looked at each other and started to smile. Then when he closed with General Grievous we couldn't help but to laugh. So trying to be good parents we explained that we don't pray to anyone but Heavenly Father and we only close with Jesus Christ.


Fast forward to the next evenings dinner prayer. Gooby insists that he pray again and this is how it went:


Dear Heavenly Father, thankful for food, bless it, in the name of Darth Maul Amen.


George Lucas would be proud. A three year old worshiping his characters.
