airplane aholicMason’s hands are always working … seriously! They don’t rest until his eyes close and he is finally asleep, most nights we have to pull the paper out of his hands and be the one to turn out the lights. When we see Mason in the morning his hand is connected to a piece of paper in folding motions. We really don’t know how many trees have suffered for the cause of origami creations and countless airplanes. After picking up one too many airplanes off of the ground, on the table, in the bathroom, backpack, piano, computer desk, couch, etc., we finally had the good sense to use them for room decor. The only stipulation for “making the ceiling” is that no one airplane can be alike. These are only a “few” of the many, many planes created by Mr. Mason.
Even though this has become an obsession and sometimes have to use “no airplane making” as a punishment, we are glad that Mason’s mind is at working and he isn’t sitting around being bored or a couch potato.
 Stephen, Lexi, Tara, and Mason hung these up on Sunday Evening. |

Busy hands are happy hands. They could be doing less positive things. That looks like a real talent to make all those different things. Good job, Mason.

Way cool planes. I love the bedroom. It is just the beginning of many more great things. Just keep your hands doing good things. Your hands could do all sorts of amazing things and help countless people.

So cool, Mason. You are a doer!!! I can’t believe how many airplanes you made while you were here at our house last. They are all so unique and neat!!! I’m glad you are putting them to good use.
