Four board games and a puzzle all taken from the game closet and place in a circle around himself, Simon removes the lids and contemplates his next move....
....meanwhile Mom cringes and wonders if she should protest, slam the lids back on and find a new (higher!) place to store them.
Then she remembers that the games are covered in dust and unused.
He actually wants to play with them.
Why do I care if he is not following the game rules or playing with so many at once?
He had an idea!
He is happy. He is playing.
First two puzzle pieces are talking to each other and now the chess pieces are stuck on the tips of his fingers.
The games are being used and bringing joy! yay!
