Learning

Last night while I was making dinner Sam brought me a Star Wars action figure and asked me to remove the head. It seems he'd put Obi Wan's head on a Stormtrooper's body.

"I don't think I can get this off Sam. It's really stuck."

"Dad was able to do it. You should be able to do it."

This added to my growing level of frustration. It was 6:30, dinner was no where near ready, Abby was literally pulling at my skirt, and I was starving but wouldn't be eating the hot dogs I was fixing. But after a couple of twists and turns Obi Wan's head popped off the Stormtrooper and I put it back on his body.

"There you go Sam. Fixed."

"Thanks Mom. You're not just good looking ..."

Thanks Sam.
