A few days ago, I sat down to play Legos with my boys. Son #1 built towers, houses, skyscrapers, castles only to destroy them like King Kong and then build again. Gently, I helped Son #2 stack Lego pieces together and eventually we made a car and an airplane.
While we created and destroyed our Lego towns, I looked down and noticed that the Legos we had were for children ages 1-5 years. I thought aloud. "Hmm...this is for 1-5 year old kids." In my head, I realized that I needed to get my older son new Legos soon and pass these Legos down to my younger son.
My older son replied. "Yes...and I'm going to be six soon."
I smiled and said. "You're really good at making stuff out of these Legos."
Son #1 confidently responded. "That's because I KNOW EVERYTHING!"
I raised my eyebrow and repeated his statement. "You know everything?"
My oldest son looked me straight in the eye and stated. "Yes."
Well alright then. I guess you do.
