"I was the big cheese.  I went in the water table and I played with the cars and I played with the people, and I played with the plastic food, and then I played in the gym.  We cleaned up our cars.  We had circle time, and we sang songs, and we put coats on.

"Dino had some seltzer.  Dino took his shoes off.  Dino looked at the crocuses that were white, and he looked at the white ones too, and he looked at the purple ones, and he looked at the weeds.  We took Dino on the swing, and we played with Dino with a ball.  We took Dino on a wagon ride.  Dino saw a couple spider webs.  He thinked they were scary.  Dino took a nap with me.  He sleeped 20 hours and a half.  I played with Dinosaurs.  He played hockey.  Dino played with dinosaurs.  He played with toys.  He played with eyes and helicopters and noses and beds and dolls, that's all.

"He ate mac and cheese.  I ate beans and I ate olives.  I did chips.  We brushed teeth.  I'm going to do something that's really cool called hopscotch.  Dino likes to wake up in the middle of the night.  Dino likes to have his paci and bear-bear.  Dino likes to go outsiude and eat grass.  Dino likes to try mud in his mouth.  He does lots of reading.

"I can't tell any more because I have no more breath."

(Nora's first homework assignment, dictating to us about her day as the "big cheese", for which she got to bring home Dino the dinosaur.  Transcribed as close to verbatim as possible.  Sorry I didn't have the recorder going.)
