Mine heart doth leap with joy
The greatest sentence a toddler can speak to her father: "Daddy, can we watch Yoda?"
This weekend, I was doing the dishes and my daughter just blurted that out of no where. I was so happy, I was about to cry. I dried my hands, and we sat down to watch Empire.
Randal Graves: Which did you like better? "Jedi" or "The Empire Strikes Back?"
Dante Hicks: "Empire."
Randal Graves: Blasphemy.
Dante Hicks: "Empire" had the better ending. Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader is his father, uh, Han gets frozen, taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All "Jedi" had was a bunch of Muppets.

So what will be your reaction when she asks to watch MST3K?

when she starts making wookie sounds, that's when I'll be proud.

@Kath - HA! Now that would be good.
@Ken - well, she made some gurgling noises when she was an infant. Does that count?

If she can associate that with Chewie then yes!
