I ain't one to brag or nothin', but... (yes, that's a quote from Mater)

My son is a genius! Okay, maybe that's a stretch, but he really did impress me yesterday. Grayson loves puzzles. Whenever my mom takes out her 1,000 piece puzzles, he thinks he needs to "help" us do them. Yesterday, I was cooking dinner, minding my own and Grayson breaks out one of his Cars puzzles (it's really Aiden's but let's be honest, he has no interest). By the time I turn around he's got this thing done:
He did that in no time at all, so I figure maybe he's ready for a bigger puzzle (and by bigger, I mean more pieces...the first one was huge with huge pieces). So I break out his (and yes, this one is his) other puzzle and he started pluggin' away.
He got the characters done all by himself and was stuck.
I placed one piece for him and then he was off again. It took a while, but he finished by himself!And then he was asking for more. By this time, Aiden saw I was taking pictures of Grayson, so he decided to join.
Aiden did the little Cars symbol you see (two pieces) and then got bored and took off. He really doesn't have the attention span...he's a bit like his father.

But Gray kept going to the bitter end.


Now come on...aren't you just a little impressed?
