Feb. 15: The dynamic duo

Mack is Jack’s best buddy in our neighborhood. Both boys are obsessive about all things Star Wars, especially Legos. They memorize the Lego magazines, comics, and catalogs to which they subscribe. When playing outside during the summer, they can easily be found at dusk by their glowing light sabers. They occasionally alienate the other neighbor kids when they don’t play Star Wars “right,” which is aggravating and also kind of amusing. At this rate, Mack and Jack will be attending those geeks-only sci-fi conventions and living in their parents’ basements in 40 years. (Pssst, Vic… we need to build a basement.)

That's Jack on the left... I think...

Mack’s mom took this photo of the boys right after Jack got his glasses. Jack looks quite a bit smaller than Mack here, but I think it’s because he’s sitting lower. We often have trouble telling our sons apart from afar; now they look alike even close-up. With our increasingly poor eyesight, they could easily pull a “Parent Trap” thing with us. Good thing we like Mack.
