The quote above reminded me of a jigsaw puzzle. Like you, Robyn, my wife and I recently got into jigsaw puzzles. We have moved from 50 to 100 to 250 to 1000 piece puzzles. Your story reminded me of that.

Additionally, I like how you described how careful you are in opening the box, arranging the block, and the building process. It brought back a flood of nostalgia for me. Thank you for that!!

Of your five points, number two and three resonated with me. I haven't played with Legos in years, but after reading your story, I am thinking of buying some--especially if it can help alleviate stress.

One suggestion: I noticed you used 4 story tags instead of the max 5. I've added a "Fellowship Writers" tag, so if you're ever struggling to come up with a fifth tag, consider using our publication tag. Just something to consider.

Overall, I thought your story's strongest aspect was how you described your process in building Legos. It is clear you are careful in your build, but it also clear you are careful in your writing. Your carefulness showed through for each.

Thank you for sharing!
