In case you've been looking for Brenden for the past week, he's been heads down (that's corporate speak) in the family room building legos. At 6am when he wakes up; 3:30pm as soon as he's home from school; 8:00pm when it's time for bed, asking "please can I just finish one more step?" He has an amazing attention span and ability to focus and follow the instructions. This is a set Santa brought him for Christmas. It's a model of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It has 1200 pieces and about 150 steps and is rated for kids ages 10-15. Very occasionally he'll ask for a little help, but for the most part he has done it all on his own. Due to June's current vacuum-esque tendencies, he's had to move his operation off the floor and onto the couch. That was a conflict and has taken some convincing ("No, I can't just keep her away, Brenden") but has worked out.So, drum roll please........
Here it is. Complete.

That is amazing. I don't think I have that much of an attention span! Crazy. Tell him it's awsome.
What a focused kid! That is a really great accomplishment.
Hi sarah,
Its Julie Garcia (Brooks). That is amazing that he was able to complete that. My 3 yr old Jonah saw that picture as I was looking at it and he said "mom I want to make one like that, right now!" it was pretty funny as if it took like a couple minutes to do...Tell him he is amazing..

Wow, that is seriously impressive! And he didn't even loose any to June's digestive track- equally impressive:)
Having dabbled with legos a little myself I must say that is rather amazing!
That is impressive!
Caleb just saw this over my shoulder and said, "Whoa. Sweet. Is that an airplane?"
"Who made that?"
I said, "Brenden."
"Brenden?", he questioned.
"Yep. Brenden.", I replied.
"Oh. He got a haircut.", he said.
Funny. He hasn't even seen the haircut post. Yes, he should be in bed.
