# 0046: Thought Processes

I love to see thought processes in action! I love to see those little wheels turning. I love to see my little kids putting the peices of this world together. I love to see them figuring things out for themselves all by themselves!
It's fun when they're babies and you're watching them just trying to grasp and pull a toy out of a basket. It's fun to see the look of accomplishment on their faces when they can finally bring it to their, of course, mouth and soak it in slobber.
It gets more interesting, though the older they get. I love to see the results of how their little minds have built block towers and houses, bridges and roads. My little girl loves to draw and make things out of paper. It's fun now to see her draw her plans out for her projects and then execute them.

Last winter, the kids played in a cardboard castle their grandma had gotten them for Christmas. They colored all over it and dressed up in their costumes. Then, they started fiddling with the drawbridge. Pretty soon, my daughter was asking for some string, then some siccors and tape, but no help. Before long she was calling me into the livingrootm to uwatch her let down and close the castle door just by pulling the string from inside.
It's so cool to see you kids figure things out completely independently. After all... “Play is the highest form of research.” – Albert Einstein
