The Fan


It started at a birthday party.

James sat in front of the wheels on this little school bus. They were spinning. James just sat there and watched it go round and round, every once in a while, giving it a good tug to make it go again.

Those that know James, know he loves fans. Austin and I will occasionally turn the fan on and off to get it to spin and give James something to look at as he drifts off to sleep. He's a thinker. He likes to figure out how they work (and loves pushing buttons).

Austin got this idea.

We went to Home Depot. I just followed him around not really understanding the vision inside his head, but the faith that he knew what he was doing. He wanted to build something for James, he said.

After work, I walk into James' room to find this.

Austin is thrilled to have made this exciting toy for him and James is just so thrilled to have a fan he can touch :)
