The top of the tower...

What I learned this week is brought to you by JoLynn at Musings of a Housewife.


A simple lesson really - I was reminded to NEVER underestimate my daughter! What seemed like such a daunting task, a kit for adults, over 3000 pieces, a birthday present from Grams and Gramps - completed in less than 3 weeks.


And the pride, the sense of accomplishment the amazement and wonder as she placed the last piece on the top tonight - no better lesson could be learned by Lauren either!

HOW AMAZING!!!! The patience, the tenacity and oh, that happy accomplishment in the last picture. :)

Kudos to the puzzle-completer/architect, Lauren! (and her mama for taking such justifiable pride in her accomplishment!)

What a cool Lego set! If my daughter got one of those, she'd never put it together - she likes tiny pieces way too much.
