At four years old, Sam is very focused on his career ambitions. His plan is to be an inventor and to work part-time for a wizard. He is going to attend inventor school in Massachusetts (Jon told him his best bet for becoming a first rate inventor was MIT) and what he can't figure out how to invent he will ask the wizard to assist him (artificial pancreas maybe?). So far, Sam has had three ideas for inventions. The first is a machine that will make him, Jon, and me stay four years old forever so we can all live the same length life at the same time. If you are wondering where Talia will be, Sam's machine is going to make her two years old forever so he can still be her big brother. The second machine is designed to shoot candy into your mouth from anywhere in a room. You simply press a button and the candy will find its way directly into your mouth. The third machine he actually invented and it involved a catapult, a rubber band, tin foil, and a marble. Todays idea though is truly revolutionary. While eating a piece of ham (one of the few carbohydrate free snacks available to him) Sam said, "Mom, I am going to invent a machine that turns pigs into carb-free candy." Perhaps a minor in Cell and Molecular Mechanics...
