Take. Their. Power. Away. Continue reading “Time for THEM to Listen”
The seven-year-old: “I have so many hugs, I have to use one right now. [[rushes over to give me a hug]] I have infinity hugs and I never lose them. When I lose one, I go get another.”
The Mandalorian S2E2 is the best so far because:
