There's a grandparent who is very into his son's gymnastics, so he's at every practice and every meet, and he's gotten familiar with all the kids. He comments that he NEVER sees Reuben walk anywhere. He runs, he skips, he hops, he spins, he stutter steps, he cartwheels, but he doesn't just *walk*. It's like the act of walking is too boring and he has to do something more to engage his brain.
And this is *while* he's being active. He can't sit or stand still except when he's sleeping or he's got a device in his hands, absorbing his focus.
