Doubting Thomas

Why do I doubt my son?  After all these years you would think I would have learned that when he puts his mind to something he's going to get it done.

On Saturday we went to a birthday party and one of the gifts was a gyroscope.  It was no surprise that my son thought it was "awesome!"  He immediately told everyone in the area who was listening that he was going to make one out of K'Nex.  Of course I shrugged it off and said something like, I don't think it's possible but you can certainly try.

Yesterday, he created this....

I admit it's not exactly a gyroscope but it is definitely more than I was expecting him to be able to do.  Oh, and he's already destroyed that one and is working on a bigger and better one.
