Epiphany

My youngest son Sean was in a hurry this morning and rushing out of the house, but needed to make a pitstop first. He said: "Darnit, I just tightened this belt and closed the button. I don't have time."

I pointed to his zipper.

He looked up at me, and I could actually see the light bulb go on over his head.

"OH! That's what that's for!"

8 years. It took him 8 years.

The apple does not fall far from the tree.
