When the boys have created something
They find astonishing,
They fetch me so I can admire their handiwork.
While I was working today,
Caleb grabbed my jeans and pulled insistently.
He led me to a corner of the playroom,
Where he picked up a Lego car from the floor—
That he did not assemble—
And set it on the shelf. He did this with another Lego car.
He pushed the two around aimlessly,
Pointed to a few bits and pieces. I think I heard him say,
“Praise me, too, Mommy!”
