When I saw the tag in honor of Star Wars Day, I remembered when my 19 year old son was 8 and lived his life as a Jedi or a sith. Unfortunately, this best friend was quickly told he couldn't play with my son anymore because the other Mom didn't approve of all the Dark Side of the Force, so my son learned rejection for the first time. But for a few months in second grade, they explored galaxies together and took on the rest of the universe, Light side and dark side were all one and the same and it was fun for me to see them explore a world where it was just the two of them against everyone else.
