Shhh....Don't tell J

O.K. here is the background. J pulled out the lego for the kids and built E his Lgo Str Wars spaceship. Of course, A wanted to play with it and J said that she would build him whatever he wanted. He then picks one of the largest, if not the largest, lego machine in the Bfoot inventory. This task includes two 40 page manuals and many many pieces of lego hidden in the proverbial haystack. She works on it for about 2 hours last night, finishing at about midnight. She recommences in the morning at 0800hrs. At 1000hrs, she is almost done but the entire family is recruited to find two gears that cannot be found in any of the piles and bags (read haystacks) of lego. She completes the job but is disappointed that the two gears, which allow the wheel to move when the vehicle is in forward motion, were never found. Now here is the funny part, she goes out this afternoon to get some tasks done before we go out this evening for dinner, I am prepping a snack for the kids when A says, "Oh! Here are the gears on the kitchen counter". We are soooo dead...HAHAHA.
