#MayThe4thBeWithYou from a lifetime Star Wars nerd, and here is a picture of tiny me, sound asleep with my Princess Leia buns, to prove it. 😉 c.c. @HamillHimself pic.twitter.com/BIYhi49v8d

Princess Leia was everything to me. I was the only girl with my own Darth Vader helmet carrying case for all my Star Wars action figures. I was the only girl who played Ewoks on the playground during recess. I was the only girl with a Star Wars lunchbox.

Princess Leia is still everything to me. But I'm so glad there are more visible women in the Star Wars universe now, for all the girls and boys who want and need women to model tenacity and bravery and leadership for them. ❤
