The Fix-It Men

The tree in our front yard actually went down Friday night before the kids went to bed, but we waited until Saturday morning to show them. We had no electricity on Saturday morning, and it was pretty dark, so I opened the boys' curtains as soon as I went in their room to wake up. They both went to the window to watch the storms and, of course, saw the uprooted tree. They just stood there staring for awhile. Michael finally broke the silence. "Need a hammer and nails to fix it."

Leon thought about it and added, "And a screw driver."

Leon paused then lit up when he realized what was truly needed. "And new batteries!"
