I noticed Van has something that looks like a burn or a wart on his thumb.
Me: "oh no Van! does that hurt?"
Van: perks up. "I can get a bandaid!" he runs into the bathroom and easily opens the 'childproof' cupboard to bring back a box of bandaids. I don't think it hurts.
Me: "Ok give me your thumb" I apply the bandaid
Van: "Now tell me to keep in on"
Me: "Keep it on"
Van: "why?"
Me: (I'm tempted to say 'because you told me to tell you to' but instead go with, "because that will keep it safe and let it heal."
It doesn't matter either way. About 30 seconds later
Van: "Mom, I want this off." Van removes bandaid with teeth.

Van and I are lost looking for our friend Laura's house.
Van: "I have an idea, no wait, I have a hypothesis"
Me: "Oh really? what's that?"
Van: "Maybe Laura lives at Dionisia's house"
An illogical hypothesis for sure, I'm pretty sure Laura doesn't live at Van's babysitter's house, but I was pretty impressed that he used the word correctly. All those hours of Dinosaur Train paid off.
