Making our Mark

Dawson and Jason headed outside with the magnifying glass and here are the results…

I think Jason taught him a bit too well since he started burning everything…the slide, the metal. 

Did I mention that just a few weeks ago Dawson lit a napkin on fire by holding it over a candle.  It looked like his arm was on fire and scared the living daylights out of me! Jason and my brother-in-law Will worked quick and got the fire put out and Dawson only burned his fingers slightly.  We just had a lengthy conversation the week prior about the dangers of fire.  I guess this was a lessoned learned the hard way.

But, now Jason has taught him new fire making skills.  I guess he will be ready for Survivor, but in the meantime, I am not sure my back yard will survive.  When I caught him trying to burn the bark a couple days later, I decided to hide all magnifying glasses from all boys.
