What started out as "something new to play with at my cousin's" has turned into an obsession and OCD all wrapped up into one! Adam is smitten with his cars-they are the first thing he wants in the morning and the last thing he touches before we make him put them down to go upstairs to bed.
He drives them from one place to another and then arranges them in some sort of a line...or he sorts them by size and type. He tries to carry 10 of them all at once in his arms, tucked under his shin, they go from one room to another, they line up on the back on chairs & the sofa, they fly down the slide, they race down their spiral race tracks, they go in Molly's water bowl, they go down his shirt and come out his pant leg, in his pockets and to mysterious places that only he knows where they are(he may be a magician!).
When we get ready to go somewhere, I will tell him to pick up 2 cars to bring with him-he puts 2 in each hand and then tries to grab more. He will NOT share them, he WILL throw them when he is mad at them, he loves to park them at your feet, he will drive them down your leg, he gets VERY mad if you try to put one that does not belong when he has them sorted into groups.
Hello, my name is Adam and I am a Hotwheelaholic.

Well, when Elizabeth told me she wanted to play with Adam, she asked for "Adam? Trucks?"
His first hobby!
