The Force

I had to blog about the conversation Jaycee and Ethan just had:

Jaycee, "Lets play Star Wars."

Ethan, "Ok, but it isn't real so we will have to pretend."

Jaycee, "Yes it is. It's all real and we are real Jedi's."

Ethan, "No we aren't. We are just pretend Jedi's and the force is just pretend."

Jaycee, "No it isn't. It is real."

Ethan, "Then how come we don't have real light sabers, just toy ones? And I've tried to use the force before. It didn't work!"

Jaycee, "We need to keep it secret for now that we are Jedi's so it doesn't work right now. When we are older it will work."

Ethan, "Well I try all the time and it never works for me so we'll just have to pretend."

I was cracking up listening to this conversation. What kid hasn't tried REALLY hard to use the force? I know I have and it didn't work for me. Mike tried a few weeks ago with the TV remote. It didn't work for him either.
