For The Love Of An Astrodroid

The past two nights before bed my youngest daughter (22 months) has been repeating a prayer that goes like this, "Ga, d-2, amen." Yes, the Speedbuggy is interceding for R2 D2. She is absolutely intrigued by the little Star Wars astrodroid. One day while strolling through Krogers she spotted a Pepsi display that was a life-size replica of good ol' R2 filled with bottles of the cold, refreshing beverage. She ran up to it with open arms crying out, " D2! D2!" Don't you just love it when your kid does something really cute in public? It sure beats the "We're almost through the check out line and I don't want to sit in the cart a minute longer wail and cling routine." Thanks R2, you're a real hero.
