Get a load of this kid. This must be what it feels like driving around a celebrity.
Year 5, Day 199
It warms my Star Wars-loving heart to see Miles look at his distorted reflection in my car door and say, "Look! I'm Cad Bane!" Whatever you say, kid!
Year 5, Day 176
I took Miles to his music class today and I was hoping that, afterward, he would be amenable to going out for lunch. Unfortunately, everything I suggested was met with rejection.

"For … Continue reading Year 4, Day 239
