"That kid with the blue t-shirt in Lego Camp today was being disrespectful and talking when the teacher was talking."

"What did you think of that?"

"I'm worried that the blue-shirt kid won't get Christmas presents because Santa sees everything and the blue-shirt kid was doing bad behavior."

"He still has time to turn it around before Christmas. I bet he'll do okay. I don't think you need to worry about him."

"He should be real careful."

"How was Lego Camp today? Did you guys make something fun?"

"We learned about bushings and axles and fulcrums and catapult loads."

"Wow!"

"It's engineering, Mom."

Lego Camp

"So, Mom? Where is the Lego Camp?"

"It's in that same room at the park that Jedi Camp was."

"Are they going to have the big Duplo Legos or the grown up kind?"

"Well, the camp is for five to eight-year-olds."

"So grown up Legos, then?"

The Wizard

"Mom? Have you seen that wizard in the park?"

"He's not a wizard, Bob."

"But he has long white hair and a beard and Dylan said he's a wizard."

"Dylan's wrong this time."

"But I think the man lives in the trees like a wizard would."

"Honey, I think sometimes he might sleep in the park in the afternoon because he doesn't have a place to live."

"No house?"

"Right."

"Then we should all be very quiet when he's sleeping."

"That's a nice idea."
