a boy and his legos ..

last night cash was supposed to be watching tv with his dad .. 
i had to go get ellie from piano .. his last words as i was walking out the door were mom .. can i please get out my legos .. no cash babe .. it's 8:15 .. it's time for bed .. 
go and lay in bed with daddy and watch tv ..

ok mom .. he said as he hung his head and moped back to our bedroom .. 
when i got home from picking up ellie this is what i saw .. 

my blond long haired boy working hard on his legos .. 

he was halfway thru assembling the trailer for the motorcycles .. 


he didn't even notice when we walked in ..
didn't hear ellie drop her piano bag and kick off her shoes ..
didn't hear sophie barking like crazy because we pulled into the driveway ..
didn't hear jeff snoring like a giant freight train .. 

he was busy busy busy ..



cash finally came out of his lego assembling daze and looked up at me ..
i could tell that he was trying to come up with something witty to say that might get him out of trouble .. seeing how he was supposed to be in bed .. not working on his legos ..

look mom .. he says .. 
it's a ktm and a kawasaki .. 

and the trailer even has a drawer for tools .. 

cash you are brilliant i said .. 
he smiled and went back to working on his legos .. 
he finished up the motorcycles and the trailer about 10 ..
came into the kitchen and said ..

i am going to bed now mom ..
goodnight cash i said ..

thanks mom for letting me finish my legos ..

i love you mom ..

oh cash .. i love you to .. 

he can work on legos anytime he wants to
