bathroom

You have always been unusually comfortable spending great lengths of
time in the bathroom. An hour ago you asked me to play trains with
you. I've reminded you three times already, but I'm still waiting for
you to finish your business.

Weaving

Dylan,

This is your weaving work at school. You tell me you're making a purse.

Fruits

"Peas are a fruit", you announced while munching on a strawberry at breakfast.

"So are avacados" I replied, just trying to keep up.

Continuing, you said "Anything that has seeds in it is a fruit. Remember we learned that at Hidden Villa?"

Uncle Marc will be so proud.

Coaster

You just rode your first big roller coaster!
Along the way, you repeatedly declared your fears along with your intent to never do this again, but as soon as the ride eased into the station you said "that wasn't so scary".

Look Ma, I caught a snap pea!

Dylan,

You're sitting atop your playhouse picking the snap peas that have made their way out of the garden boundaries.

I've got some ambitious plans for our summer garden, but the winter
garden is proving too bountiful for me to tear it all out yet.

You haven't outgrown your love of boxes.

Satellite

Dylan,

On a recent trip to the planetarium at the Academy of Sciences you saw pictures of Voyager One. You've been making frequent satellite references since then, and you built this one all on your own:
