My husband addresses children's behavior for a living...

...yet, he does things that he knows Lilly will copy and/or model. Most of the dad stuff he teaches her has been okay with me; I sit adoringly and watch the two of them play. But, I often make fun of him when he is including something (ridiculous) that has anything to do with science fiction. As most of you know, I'm not a sci-fi fan. As a matter of fact, I rather loathe the whole notion of outer space, monsters, godzilla, wizardry, and the like. Now that Jackie is staying with us, I am "bookended" by TWO sci-fi fans. Ug. Which leads me to Star Trek. I've never seen an episode or movie, but I've had to learn what a Cardassian is. Here is a Star Trek Cardassian named Damar.



Tom and Jackie "make a face like the Cardassians on Star Trek" to Lilly all of the time. She watches them and laughs. I just bow and nod my head in loving shame. Here they are.....





Need I point out what Lilly does now? And laughs at herself? And laughs at us for laughing at her? Can you hear Tom laughing hysterically (but trying not to) in the background? For some reason, he thinks this is HILARIOUS! God, I hope she doesn't start doing this in public! ENJOY!
