Not Cool

The year was 1998 and a new Star Wars movie was finally coming out. My husband and brother had tickets for the midnight show. My four year old son Leif, was a Star Wars fan and also wanted to go. He wasn't happy that he couldn't go, but his dad promised to bring him something "special" back from the movie. Max and my brother went to the midnight showing and brought back a cool collector Star Wars cup for Leif. The next morning after breakfast, Max showed the cup to an excited toddler. He was expecting a cool toy, not a cup. Leif took the cup, looked at it, and then looked at his father and said, "what the hell is this?" He was severely disappointed. He handed the cup back to his dad and said, "not cool."
