While at the toys department at Parkway, Brandon was seriously browsing at the tracks. Then he brought one to me and asked me in Chinese "Ke yi mai gei wo ma?' He asked me how much it cost and if it was expensive, then he told me his reasons for buying, and how he needed to connect the tracks so that they can change tracks and directions etc, and i could see him figuring it out in his mind how to connect. It was the first time he gave such serious thoughts about buying a toy, instead of just grabbing something and insisted on buying. He has really grown up, and of cos this time, it was hard for me to say no.
