Yesterday, Jonathan was playing with a mini flashlight when
part of it fell off. He spent quite a while trying to put it back
together ("Mommy! The clear part fell off, and when I tried to get
that, the bulb fell out. Where does this black piece go?") But he was
mostly talking to himself or about it, not asking for help. Then after
a while he came to me and said triumphantly that he had fixed it! All
by himself. ("I couldn't find where that black piece went, but then I
found where it should go and I tested it and it works. It's even
brighter than it was before!")

That's the son of two engineers! Particularly the "I tested it and it works" part.
I should ship my flashlight to him. It kept me alive in the backwoods of Yellowstone and two years after with the same batteries.
I left it on, batteries fried, and I need a gadget guy to fix it.
In the meantime, I bought the same flashlight and am using the old belt case in memory...
