Mommy Brain


We were making Christmas wish lists the other day. QB had printed out many, many pages of Lego items, naturally. I asked him about a few things that looked like battery components, of all things. Why would he want that instead of a cool Star Wars set? This is what he said to me:

"Well, not to make things too complicated, Mom, but this one is a remote (blah blah blah) and this one is the receiver (blah blah blah)..."

That's right, my eight-year-old had to dumb it down for me. And in a way, he was right. I still didn't really get it. How do these things work with regular Legos? Do you have to have special electronic sets to go with them?

It's a sad, sad day.
