A little bit of life lately...
🏀 "Daddy playing basketball while I ride my bike" - by Clementine (she helpfully indicated the ball's trajectory with arrows. And everyone is drawn with a crown right now).
🐽 When Josie was coloring Pua she said, "I have to go get him to see what he looks like!" And referenced her nude model while she colored.
🎹 Piano with Daddy ....
⌚ Here she explained an art project she made at home, her "wach". I really like this video because it captures not just the artwork but her perfectionism when she finds a flaw ... and then she crumples.
"wach"
🐻 At the Nutcracker at the Fox, inhaling the gummy bears I'd promised as an incentive during the intermission->
Me: What's your favorite part of the show so far?!
Clementine: Right now, eating deez gummy bears.
💌 Josie was the star of the week in her classroom and we had to make a poster with photos and a brief questionnaire. One of the prompts was "what is your favorite memory?" and I knew she wouldn't know that word/concept and if I explained it with an example, it would be coaching her. So I simply asked: "Josie, what is your favorite memory?"
"Memory," she answered thoughtfully, "is a game with cards."
👑 After meeting a new babysitter who told the girls she lived in St. Charles, Clem swanned upstairs and introduced herself as The Queen of St. Charles.
Little baby chanteuse.
💛 And tonight I came home to a little girl in the Love Mask she made in Free Choice. "Did everyone make a mask?" I asked. "No," she said. "I found this paper wif a heart cut out in the art area and the back too ... I think Dylan cut out the heart because he knows how to cut out hearts."
