Three good tools for any sleuth: flashlight, ruler, and logic
One best tool: luck
Also - patience and amusement if possible
When
in search of a needle in a haystack it is quite obvious that patience
and deduction are important - but even patience and deduction won't
solve all mysteries.
Our boys like Legos and so far the
oldest has received the vast majority of Legos, primarily as gifts from
Christmas or his birthday. There are a lot of Lego sets out there and
we seem to have a few of each of the current ones.
Ninjago
is the latest Lego trend in the household. They come sold as individual
figures with a special spinner thing. Somehow the oldest seems to have
about five or six of these characters with their spinners. Meanwhile the
middle might have two - and he wants what the older has. So there is
this friction, especially around 4pm - known as the unhappy hour and
especially if there is no nap.
The middle has one
specific Ninjago figure that the older does not. A trusted figure, a
character worthy of Yoda and Master Splinter. In fact he seems to be an
amalgamation of the two. He is Master Wu - a surefire Ninjago master who
is teaching the other Ninjago how to battle their evil compatriots -
the Skeleton crew.
And it was a huge setback when Master Wu went missing!
At
this juncture in our little mystery it is time for a short break,
please be back tomorrow for the second of three easy installments
pertaining to -
The Case of the Missing Master Wu.
