Making Paper

Daniel, age 3, and Jacob, age 2, were watching one of their favorite DVDs in
their Uncle Mike's room. Fearing the unaccustomed quietness Daniel's mother, Elizabeth, peeked into the room to find both boys bent over looking
excitedly into the printer of Mike's computer. With his hand on the paper feed button, Daniel said, "Look, Momma! We're making paper." She had to laugh at those two boys standing so proudly in a pile of clean white paper that they were sure they had made on their own with no help from anyone
else.
