Old Toys and Memories



I've been going through boxes as I pack stuff away so Alisha can move in while we are gone on our mission (no - we don't have our call yet...) and found a box of old toys. Most of them were Dawson's Star Wars stuff (which I took up to Barrett - see past blog). For some reason I had saved these old cardboard blocks of Dawson's. I have no idea why - they are very well worn from all his playing. He would play with these blocks for long periods - stacking, then knocking them down, then restacking and knocking them down. And all the while he would laugh. Maybe the blocks had an influence in his going into construction (with occasional demolition work on a project...).
I don't know why I kept them but in finding them I rekindled a memory of a fun time when Dawson was little...
