Occasionally I put on Lego Star Wars II —super fun and only $18.95 at Amazon&mdash for the Xbox 360 and give Makoto the controller. Last night, he took over and while fiddling with various buttons and joysticks, he managed to get to the base of a small bump. To get over the bump he would have to jump.

He was sitting on my lap while ‘playing’ when I said, “Jump, Makoto, Jump!”

He got up from my lap, jumped, and then sat down again.

We thought it was hilarious so naturally we told him to jump some more. Eventually his onscreen character was also jumping with him. Makoto had found the jump button to accompany his jumping.

Sadly, I don’t think he was able to jump over the bump.
