Our station wagon is now legally allowed to tow a trailer. The trailer hitch had originally been installed without a lighting harness as it was only intented to ever carry a bike rack.
I think about when I started learning about electronics (8 or 9) and I wonder if I'm giving my children enough knowledge. As I work with Noah on rulers and angles and sanding I think about what skills I am giving him and what skills I'm neglecting to pass on. I watch closely to see what he can intuitively figure out and I ponder how to hone his common sense.
I enjoy my adaptability. I want my children to derive as much pleasure from achievement.
