Jacob has an unusual way of making you see his side of the story. In the most recent display of manhood, he showed how his little mind works, intertwined with his father's wherewithal.
The newest toy in Jacob's inventory is a soccer ball. Now, everyone knows that balls are not meant to be indoor toys. Jacob even knows this, but boys being boys, the ball becomes a conversation piece as well as a plaything.
It was time for bed, and Jacob didn't want to go to bed without his soccer ball. His dad ok'd the deal, and Jacob went to bed happily. A few minutes later, the sound of the ball hitting the floor was the final straw for his dad. He retrieved the ball and told Jacob that he couldn't have it back that night. The ball was put in a safe place, high above Jacob's reach and all was quiet.
A few minutes later, Jacob marched out of the bedroom. The first thing out of his mouth was, "Dad, let's get something straight." At that point, his dad remembered just why he loved his little boy so much. And Gamma almost fell off the couch laughing. The rest of the Jacob's point was forgotten.
