The Newest Craze

Craze...crazy, maybe.  Who gives a 3-year old a nerf sword that's as big as he is for his birthday?!  Oh yeah...grandma.  Grandma's can get away with murder.  Well, said sword was 'hidden' all winter because the teething toddler loved chewing on the foam sword.  The toddler is finally finished teething (for a bit). The sword gets 'rediscovered' and 're-purposed' as a lightsaber.  That's safe.  A 3.5 year old with a sword is so much safer than a 3 year old with one.

Well, what's better than having 1 sword...having 4 of course.  Several years ago, the high school week of camp used the nerf swords for something that went along with the theme.  They have been sitting around for a couple of years.  Jut though it would be fun to bring them home.  C.R.A.Z.Y.  What house with 3 children ages 6 and under doesn't need nerf swords?!  Ummm...my vote is this one.

But, they are having a lot of fun fighting with their light sabers.  No one has been hurt *yet*.

Sometimes, I know I'm not ready for this world of boys that I've been thrust into.  But, I have to admit that they did have a wonderful time and were hilarious to watch.  Notice E...my ever cautious first-born...wanted to participate but didn't have to be right in the middle like the boys.  I can't tell you how many pictures I have of C charging...boys and girls...so different!
