It was so beautiful this afternoon that we spent hours outside after school, eating popcorn and sword fighting.
Excuse me, lightsaber fighting.
Yep, we each had our long, colorful lightsabers. Sis is always Luke Skywalker and Bud is Obi-Wan Kenobi. Today, I was Qui Gon. (Or Ventress, depending.)
And so I gave Bud (Sis "flew" on the swingset, not so interested) some saber-fighting tips, drawn from, of all things, my college fencing class. Yep, I can wield a foil with aplomb. Or at least in the eyes of a six-year-old.
We practiced our stance, how to parry, how to block an attack, and how to lunge. I'm not very good, but it was a lot of fun. Especially because Bud thought it was so cool.
