An artist in the making

Tuesday 29 March

Amelia was very upset when

Shane dropped her off in

the evening.

So I gave her the paints set

that I had for her to play

on Wednesday.

She loved it and the tears dried up.

Wednesday 30 March

6.20 AM

"toast"

we were very early at the park

and then at the beach

collecting pine needle

( from Norfolk Island pine)

to put on her castle

balancing

I bought her a pack of 10 knickers

and in it was one matching

her Dora dress.

It was so cute as the dress is short.

and then more painting

Isn't she clever?

I drew the red flower on the right.

Yes I know, you should not draw for children.

As soon as I did it the thought came to me. And she reacted as predicted. She wanted me

to draw another one.

I told her that she had to do it.

I told her to do a circle, and not to forget

the stem and the leaf.

She did the yellow centre without prompting.

very clever
