Thing 3's school has had an A to Z countdown until summer vacation. H was for Hat Day so they could wear their favorite hats. He didn't choose his baseball cap for his peewee team, or any of our beer featured caps (thank goodness, but it's what one often gets when one works in the glass industry), or any of the college or professional sports teams' logos. He heads straight for the Dark Side:
I should mention that the part hanging around his neck has buttons that, when pushed, emit the voice of James Earl Jones quoting lines from the movies as well as his labored breathing. I reminded him that he probably could play it before school but had better not during class.
I advised cautious optimism. "They might not allow you to wear it all day. You might have to separate it, and that's okay."
A chipper Thing 3 hopped off the bus in the afternoon and announced that he'd gotten to wear it all day long. Apparently I am no Jedi yet...
