Lizzy presented this beautiful picture to me this morning. She had been in her room drawing, and I wasn't quite sure what she was working on. Boy, did I love the result! I don't think she's ever made a picture of all of us before (certainly not on her own). I love this picture so much, because I love how she included small details about each of us that show who we are. We're standing on a beach by a river. Lizzy is in a big pencil phase now, and loves to use pencils to draw and write. I LOVE watching both kids draw, write, and create. It amazes me how they are learning right before my eyes, and I am in awe of what they are capable of. I've watched each tiny step along the way- beginning to hold a crayon, scribbling, making circles, getting more control and beginning to draw lines and shapes. It is amazing all the little pieces that come together as children learn, and I am constantly in awe of their work, their patience with themselves, and their dedication to plug along and improve.
