While the girls were at the shower, daddy was taking care of the boys. To keep them occupied, I went to the closet and brought out something I've been keeping there for such a time as this.
A "CREATOR" lego shark set!
I originally purchased this set when Daniel was still very little, but it was still a bit young for him. All the pieces have been mixed with all the other sets and the instructions were lost. But he enjoyed the shark so much that I got another set.
I had purchased this set almost 3 years ago for about $12.00 and kept it untouched and unopened for all that time. I considered never opening it, until it was worth hundreds (lol), but what's the point of having legos that are not played with?
Just to satisfy my curiosity, I looked up what it costs today:
The price has increased 167%, I'm glad I got it when I did! Part of me wants to preserve these sorts of things unopened for at least a generation, but what is lost in not bothering to use them in the mean-time?
The precious moments of building this together with my son is worth much more than a few dollars.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.
