I gave the new cone to my father, who handed it to David, right there on the floor.
And while David sat there eating it, my father and I worked around him,
putting everything back in order and wiping up the mess.
On the walk back to Greenhaven, David acted like nothing had happened.
He spurted into his pinwheel and cried, “Owwwange!” from time to time,
but when my dad held open the front door, I could tell that David was tired.
Down in his room David placed the pinwheel on his bed and picked up the puzzle box.
“Why don’t you take a rest before you get started on it?” my dad asked.
David shook his head. “Naaow.” “Okay, then. Let me help you set it up.”
My father pulled a card table from beneath the bed, then swung the legs out and snapped them into place.
After he had it shoved up against the wall near the bed, he moved a chair close to it and said,
“There you are. All set up.” David had the box open and was already sifting through the pieces.
