Last night I was left with the three kids while my wife was off teaching high school and college students about the Matrix. It wasn't long after she left....
...that I was transported back to grade 5. The pad of construction paper and roll of masking tape came out. I was transformed into an aerodynamic paper-folding engineering genius. I taught my construction techniques to my two eldest for the first time... Soon the skies were filled with streaks of coloured paper and laughter of children (and their father).
It's funny... sometimes having kids makes me feel very old. Last night - at least for an hour - having kids made me feel about 3 decades younger.
