Parker spends most of his day dreaming about Star Wars. Whether its his light-saber fighting skills he practices all day long in the mirror or the battles he sets up with his figurines, this boy has the makings of a true jedi knight...(or Sith Lord....apparently to him Sith Lords are much cooler because they have better power over the force....eh, hem.....not sure how I feel about his love for the dark side.) Parker knows all the facts about star wars. Go ahead, ask him what color light saber, Master Windu has or what planet Anakin skywalker grew up on. At 3, Im pretty sure he could go head to head with anyone on Star Wars Trivia.
And then there is Playstation. We bought him a Star Wars game for the Playstaion, and lets just say that he is now limited to playing only on Mondays and Fridays. Playstation pretty much took over his mind, and he spent all waking hours trying to plan out how to beat the next level. So as parents who want their kid to lead a somewhat balanced life....we limited that...although not without appreciating the fact that our 3 year old has amazing talents when it comes to gaming and computers. (Parker can turn on the computer, go to firefox, and browse his favorite...mommy approved....websites, as if he's been doing it for years.) Speaking of which, yesterday in the car Parker was playing with my phone and showed me a short-cut of how to access his favorite gaming apps faster....something I didn't know. Nice to have around in a bind, I guess.
As a disclaimer, I would like to mention Parker has some less nerdy interests including baseball and football, but those are not as fun to write about. :)
