Postage Anyone?

It only happens when I walk away...and I'm only gone, I'm not even GONE, I'm only turned away for moments...

Like this morning. My son needed some help getting his jacket down from the coat hook. I walked over to help him. In the process, there was a little tickling and some dad time, but like 2 minutes, MAX! I got him his coat and helped him put it on. Then as I sent him out the door and then turned back to the table where my 2 year old HAD been, that's when I saw it.

I'm not sure what neuron fired in his brain and impressed him to open a drawer. I'm not sure what inspired the thought to pull out the roll of stamps. And I'm still questioning what made him think that decorating the Lego house with stamps would be a good idea. But it happened.

As I run across the living room, leaving my slippers behind, nearly tripping over the scooter and big wheel that remain inside since Christmas, I realize it's a moment in time. And, it doesn't last forever. And, it might have cost $2 or so. And, I can't really be angry. He's just 2.


But that doesn't stop me from telling him that the stamps aren't for Legos. Postage Anyone?
