How is this my fault? UPDATE! Mom's Day card

[gritsar]

My soon-to-be DD calls me yesterday to tell me that her son, my new GS, won't build anything with his new giant lego blocks but "chicken houses".
Last week I got the blame because he was walking around with a stuffed cow lifting its tail and sticking it in people's faces. He makes the cutest pootin' noises when he does this.
Okay so I may have shown the kid one too many youtube videos of a T-rex pootin', but I fail to see how the lego block problem is my fault.
I was just bonding with him.

You are the grandma - you can feed them too much sugar, give them coffee, feed them pizza for breakfast, teach them how to burp and fart and buy them kittens. Then give them back

Why is building chicken houses out of Lego blocks a problem? Frankly if I had enough blocks, I would be delighted for my seven year old to build me a REAL lego block chicken house.

Edit: I think I would be more offended by a farting cow in my face than a lego chicken house.

It's always your fault.

its a phase........

and I agree, whats wrong with chicken houses? Its still promiting dexterity and creativity, isnt that what legos are for?
