Miles, I am your sister (NOT REALLY)
First, first, there is NOTHING hinty you should gather from this post. I am not pregnant, nor do I plan to be for a while. Miles has just been really interested in other kids lately, so we’ve been talking about families and kids of different ages.

A: Miles, if Daddy and I have another baby, should it be a boy or a girl?
M: Girl.
A: So would you like a sister or a brother?
M: Sister.
A: What should your sister’s name be?
M: Dah Bay-da.
A: [pause] … Darth Vader?
M: Yeah.

I told Denny about that conversation, and he asked where Miles had ever heard of Darth Vader. I told him about how last week or so, he kept putting this shiny black box on his head, and Skittergramps called him Darth Vader. So there we go.
It’s a nice name, and uncommon for baby girls.
