building blocks...

I remember when my son was much younger he used to like me to build him a tall tower of wooden building blocks which he would then knock down...he loved it so much that he started to get impatient as i was building the tower and would knock it down halfway through...half the blocks, half the noise, half the fun right?

so i would try and get him to hold off until i'd finished building but i wasn't always successful...certainly when i managed to keep him at arms length then the tower was awesome and the fun was at maximum...but whenever i failed to keep an eye on him and he did manage to interfere too much thenultimately we both failed to deliver the best experience in the time allowed...

hmmm...
