I'm still completely flabbergasted and don't even know how to tell this story.

My kid spent the day at home because there was teacher's inservice at my son's Kindergarten class this week, and I had volunteered to watch one of his classmates because her mother had to work. If it had been just my little boy, I would have set him down in front of Lego Indiana Jones to be a sofa boy all day long, but I didn't want her to think I was a neglectful mother, so I planned 'activities' to keep the children occupied. We colored. We fed the fish. We walked to the park and played on the swings.

During the course of the day, we had a few lulls in the pace, and at one point, my youngster asked if he could show his friend the car I was "renting." (His term for the manufacturer vehicles I am sometimes loaned to review).
