More than it Seems

Po has been a bit reluctant to go to preschool, but the one thing he's been pumped about is getting a Transformers backpack and folder. We went on a hunt for perfection today. He proudly wore his selection through Target, and we couldn't wipe the smile off his face if we wanted to.

Now that we're home, he won't let go of the folder. Papers in. Papers out. Papers in. Papers out. In the backpack. Out of the backpack. In the backpack. Out of the backpack. He sat contemplating the folder, inside and out, and finally said "this folder is really inspirational."

Huh? "You think so, Po?" I asked. "Why is that?"

"Well," he explained, "you can open it and put stuff in it, and there's a Transformers logo and the letters to make the word and there's a picture of Optimus on the front and on the inside. And I love it so much. So that's why it's inspirational."

College, here we come!
