Paige ingenuity...

I just thought I'd post this in case Paige ends up in a career where we could look back and say "we always knew she would be a ____"--engineer, mathematician, architect, etc--ever since the time she got that car out from behind the TV cabinet.

There was a toy van which had fallen behind the TV cabinet.  In my mind, we needed a long stick, or had to move the heavy unit forward to get it out.  Paige was upstairs playing one day and then came and told me she got the van out from behind the cabinet using merely a piece of ribbon.  Apparently she threw the ribbon out behind the cabinet, and anchored one side by wrapping it around a wire.  Somehow she got the ribbon under the car, and then when she pulled up the other side of the ribbon, the car rolled  out onto the floor.  Smart I tell you!
