Jedi parents

I know it's been a while since my last post. I'm going for quality rather than quantity here. The dang holidays are finally over and I should return to regular posting.

Yesterday, as I was backing out of the driveway, I noticed my son and two friends with heir lightsabers playing on the front lawn. My son, as bright as he is, was wearing only a hooded sweatshirt, keep in mind it was 26 degrees and gusty. I stoped and rolled down he window. The three of them displayed an awesone show of lightsaber swashbuckling as they came over to talk with me. They were very excited about their apparent talents.

Son - Hi dad!
Me - Hi, are you dressed for the weather?
Son - No (head down and sagging shoulders)

He walked the death march into the house, lightsaber dragging to better dress for the cold. As I drove away, I kind of felt bad that I took the wind out of his sails. I wonder if real Jedi parents do the same thing?
