A little over 6 years ago, God in His infinite wisdom chose to bless me with a son. I now understand a great many things that I did not before. I see myself in his eyes almost everyday. Each day he gets up and puts on his uniform for the day. This usually includes an utility belt for holding all of his 'necessary' gear for the day. Some days it is tools on other days it is weapons(toy weapons, of course). From the questions he asks to the insights on life that he shares with me, everyday is an adventure. Here is an example.
I was telling him a story the other night about a superhero chef on a private yacht. During the course of the story they were attacked by pirates, of course. Our superhero decided to make some weapons out of paddles and shark teeth. After the battle, I said that they put away their weapons. My son had to know where they put them, exactly, where they put them and how did I know the place would be big enough, and would they be able to get to them easily in case the pirates came back.
