May the Fourth 2016

So today is Star Wars day. It amazes me how quickly this has become a commercial holiday. I have half a dozen ads from various types of business touting Star Wars. So I think it has become an official holiday like St. Patrick’s Day or Earth Day.

Yesterday Caroline texted me and asked where I was on her Rey outfit because the theme of the day for Spirit week on Wednesday was Character Day because she really wanted to be Rey.

Six hours later she had her Rey costume Mark 1.

Why did I do this? Because yesterday evening she was inducted into the National Junior Honor Society.

While we were at the school, she showed me the art work she had on display in the front hall.


Her Dragon Etching. She also drew the frame.


An Abstract 3-D work she did entitled the Wings of Good and Evil. She has a whole backstory to this piece.

I am in awe of her artistic skill.

I am grateful for Caroline’s many achievements.
