Hunter discovered the secrets of the garage door today.
It came about in quite a humorous way, actually. Jokingly, while Hunter was about to walk into the garage, Brandon decided to close the door on him. Which of course startled Hunter and made it so that he didn't finish his quest to get inside. I showed him that, the door was not going to shut on him anyway though, because of the laser beam that would set it off if it was disrupted.
"Try it" I said.
This lead to repeated bouts of Hunter running in and out of the garage, setting off the safety switch and preventing the door from closing. And him laughing mightily in excitment and triumph. And him carefully examining the little boxes where the invisible light beams come out. And a little bit of talk about different kinds of light waves and how they behave.
Now onto solving his persistent questioning of how it is that the door opens with the push of a button half a block down the road.
The neighbors must think we're crazy.
Hunter is 4 years, 11 months old"Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither..."Genesis 19:22
