I realize I am biased...but I believe Wm to be a super genius. Steve works all weekend, so I was thinking of ways Wm and I could entertain ourselves. I decided to take him to Barnes & Noble to get a book. He picked out an awesome Star Wars pop-up (Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader pop out of the last page with light sabers that actually LIGHT UP!) Well, next door to the bookstore is Target. So I decide to be Awesome Mom and take him over there to browse Lego stuff (my ulterior motive was also that I was being Awesome Wife and getting Steve some much needed fingerless gloves for his freaky eczema hands). Of course, Wm found a Star Wars Lego set he wanted. Since it was only $10 I decided it would keep him occupied while I cooked lunch. Well, we get the thing home, open it up, discover it has 97 pieces, and I flaked. I looked at the instructions (all picture, no words...it was like Cory Kryptonite) and just said, "sorry, dude, this is going to have to wait until Dad gets home...I have NO idea how to put this together." Wm asked if he could try to do it himself. I told him he could try as long as he didn't lose pieces or mix things up - and off I went. I return to tell Wm that lunch is ready to discover Captain Super Genius is attaching the 97th piece to the Droid Speeder. HE DID IT ALL HIMSELF!!!!!!! Yes. That's right. I have given birth to a Suuuuuuper Geniuuuuuuuus. 
Right now, said Super Genius is upstairs trying to make me believe he is napping while I can clearly hear him playing with his droids under his covers. So, perhaps, he's not as smart as he thinks he is.
