This year we celebrate Quince’s 6th birthday. This year’s theme is whales.
Every six months I note and publish a list of favorites. Here is the age 6 list. This has been a snapshot I look forward to creating. When I started I had no idea what to do with the information or how I could ever use it. These days, I simply enjoy it.

Quince continues to grow, mentally and physically. He enjoys logic puzzles both within games and ones that occur naturally. A special weekend treat is to do a challenge on one of the Lego video games with Richard. Often these involve the two of them having to work together to solve a puzzle or achieve a goal. At first, Quince needed a lot of help with them and would often ask you to take the controller and do it. Today, he works again and again to get it with little coaching from us.
