Jon made Jonathan a lightswitch stick so that he (Jonathan) can turn on and off the lights himself. It is a dowel with a loop of wire fastened to the end.
When Grammy and Auntie E were here, Jonathan demonstrated the first observed completion of the USA puzzle all by himself. Before, I had suspected that he could do it, but never saw an actual demonstration myself.
When he and Grammy were on their adventure, Jonathan learned two new words - "shamrock" and "leprechaun." One day in the store with me, he looked at a display and said, "Look! Shamrocks for Patrick!"
On Friday, Jonathan was spinning around in the dining room, singing at the top of his lungs, "Blessed be the name of the Lord!"
He can also sing the Wise and Foolish Builders song. He knows some of the motions (rain and flood) and all the phrases, but sometimes he skips some and sometimes he repeats some more than the song does. But it is very fun, and he sings it on the phone to Grammy, who is the one who taught it to him first.

He managed to do a good job on the phone, where I dialed it, but then he took it, and pushed "talk", and then answered when Grammy picked up the phone, which he doesn't always do. Though, he skipped the formalities of saying, "hello", and just launched into song.
