Goes By Fast: Slice of Life Story Challenge

When I got home from work today, I found Jackson playing with legos in the living room - no pants on - spinning a lego “Spinjitsu” top repeatedly.

“What’s up, sweetie?” I asked.

“Spinjitsu!” he replied.

“Uh huh… Hey, where are your pants?” I asked.

“What pants? I don’t wear pants,” he said, grinning.

He gave his neon green lego spinner another twist. We both watched as it spun across the floor, wondering how long it could last. It spun and spun, at first gaining speed, then slowing, then finally wobbling wildly out of control before toppling.

“I thought it would last longer,” he said.

“Me too, honey. Me too,” I said.
