On Thanksgiving, I managed to get my wife absorbed in building a new skyscraper
for my city-scape. It was actually fun. Usually I'm pretty hands-off about my
designs, but we worked well together. At first, she seemed to think that she
couldn't do it (build creatively), but she did great. Unfortunately, she was
never introduced to Legos as a child, so she didn't realize how rewarding they
can be. They were "boy toys." I won't make that mistake if I have a daughter.
