The Littlest Birds Sing the Sweetest Songs

I just tied my shoes. It took my about 15 seconds to tie both sides. I didn't need to think about the moves at all. I was with a family I know a few days ago, and their little boy was trying in vain to tie his own shoe. You could tell that he was frustrated, and viewed it as a huge obstacle. Yet I'll bet that someday that kid will become an even better shoe-tyer than me.


(of course, I didn't really learn to tie my shoes until I was 18...)
