Anakin and Darth Vader

I did a Fireman-themed birthday party today for 3-year-old Sam and all of his friends who were so excited about firemen, they spent most of the party putting out fake fires in the backyard!  Since it was a small-ish party, I had the time to really talk to the kids (I met a little girl whose name was also Naomi; we high-fived about that). I spent some time making two sculptures for this friend of Sam’s, who loved Star Wars even though he had never seen it.  He wanted Darth Vader and then Anakin.  When I asked him if he could hold both up so I could take a picture, he said:

“They’re not friends, you know.”

I didn’t have the heart to tell them that they were actually the same person…
