John David got 3 sets of Star Wars Legos at the family birthday party this past weekend. He was soooo excited about them! Most of the cool sets are for ages 7 and up so he's been waiting for his 7th birthday for a long time. We taught him that he can't have a set unless he meets the age requirements, mainly so we don't end up spending hours doing the sets for him.
At the beginning of the week he started his first set. Several times he asked for help, but we kept encouraging him and telling him that he could do it. And he did! He was so proud when he finished it a couple of nights ago. He has spent hours on end working on this creation and I'm pretty impressed that he followed the directions and built it correctly without help. His goal is to be a "lego champion" just like Daddy was when he was little. =)
I knew he could do it!! whew! I'm in the clear from now on . . .
