Youngest Son is very aware

My youngest son likes to make things out of paper, and has made a few cards and letters for my friend Bruce. We've hand delivered some and send others to him at work (I work with Bruce).

Last night he drew something, put it in a box, wrapped the box with printer paper, attached a 'card' that he made, and told me it was for one of his pre-school teachers. This is within the scope of things he normally does so I didn't think about it too much, but my wife and I felt a little odd that he had done this for ONE teacher and didn't want to start bringing wrapped boxes to school everyday. We didn't want to stifle his kindness or creativity but I was watching this closely.

I explained to the teacher who was present at his school what it was and who it was for. She told me it was the birthday of the teacher my son made the present for. I was stunned that my son, who is four, had the awareness to think about this, remember it, come up with a plan, and execute it. I was impressed and touched by his behavior.

Gaming News

I try to keep my personal blog free of gaming news, but you can see in this post on my gaming blog, that I've been lucky enough to be included in an podcast interview about Neverwinter Nights, the game I write for and play most often. You can follow this link to Neverwinter Podcast Episode 40, the podcast with my interview. I haven't even had time to listen to it yet, but was very excited and wanted to post right away.

Here's that link again:
