Hard at work

We're busy here: writing, reading, creating, playing, foraging, and planting!

Drawing

Hands down, the best part of this winter (besides adopting Mango & Rainbow--see previous post) has been watching Alice's drawing abilities develop. 

After getting her a set of her own skinny markers, she has been into drawing ALL the time, even when she's mad, which is great. 

We watched her scribbles turn to blob-people, and now she even draws cats and people so detailed they have shoes and hair clips. It's amazing how rapidly her perception of people has transformed over such a short time. 

"A girl sitting"

"A girl holding a treat for her two cats with ants on her skirt."
Notice the word "TACO" in pink? That's what she wants for dinner she says.
