    That's a great story. It's so easy to forget and not let a child do his or her own project.

              Super duper story! The guy is a very good story teller also, a lost art I'm afraid.

                Great story! So often parents end up taking over a kid's project.

                I worked retail a long time ago and I'll bet there were a few extra stops at the local bar after work that day.

                  That story is a good reminder to me to let my kids do their projects the way they want to. My oldest writes her own books, draws the pictures, writes the stories and everything. She will sometimes come to me for help with the bookbinding and I learned early on to be careful because she usually already has what she wants to do planned out.
