Show Off

About a week ago Rylan and James had well child checks at the doctor's.  During Rylan's exam the doctor handed him her pen and asked him to draw a few things on the paper that lays on the exam bed/table.  He drew a circle and a triangle.  Then she asked him to draw a person.  He paused then took the pen to the paper and drew a little line about a quarter of an inch long.  He went back and forth and back and forth in the same spot.  He continued to do that until he drew through the paper and was now drawing the same little line on the plastic cusion.  We anticipated he might start adding body parts.  I asked what part of the body he was drawing.  He did not answer. Then he decided to stop.  That was the person, a thick short line.  I thought it was a bit random, but didn't think much more about it until about a week after the exam when he was drawing at the counter and showed me this.
