A little inside playtime on a so-so weather day, the girls are playing Star Wars, and practicing their Darth Vader breathing.
I was glad to see them play something other than Monopoly for once. They have been a bit obsessed with it lately, and usually someone ends up sad. Monopoly is such a hard game to lose. Growing up, my sisters and I would spend spring break with our grandparents, and if we weren't playing Chinese Checkers with our Mormor, we were playing Monopoly. The games would last hours and hours, and I stll remember how bitter it was, the moment you realized the dots on the dice would land you on "Boardwalk" - with a hotel!
These days I'm happy to lose if it means I get out of playing!
