<p>On this year's May 4, the official holiday commemorating Star Wars, the actress and daughter of the late Carrie Fisher shared a photo of her two young kids watching their grandmother's iconic turn as Princess Leia.</p>
<p>In the photo, which Lourd shared on Instagram, her son Kingston and daughter Jackson looked up at a TV playing 1983's Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, the third film in the original Star Wars trilogy.</p>
<p>Both Kingston and Jackson — whom Lourd shares with husband Austen Rydell — appeared enthralled as they watched Fisher, who was wearing her hair up in one of Leia's iconic braided styles, on the screen.</p>
<p>Lourd shared a simple caption alongside the sweet snapshot, spelling out "May the 4th" — a nod to the franchise's most iconic phrase, "may the Force be with you" — using emojis: "Ⓜ️🅰️🌱 ✝️♓️📧 4️⃣✝️♓️."</p>

<p>This past March, Lourd spoke exclusively to PEOPLE at the Mid-Century Modern premiere and shared that her son Kingston had just learned how to ride a bike.</p>
<p>"My son just learned to ride a bike without training wheels, and he's 4. And just watching him learn new things is the most magical, crazy thing," Lourd said.</p>
<p>"I didn't learn to ride a bike 'till I was 9. I don't know — maybe blame my parents, maybe blame something — I don't know. He's so good at everything he tries to do, and just watching him try new things and succeed at them and feeling proud of himself is just such a beautiful thing."</p>
