About a month ago, Clara spotted an easel at a store. She began telling me that she wanted an “artist” for her birthday. Unlike most of the toys she sees and wants at that moment, she held on to this idea. She even tried talking the grandparents to a trip to the store so she could show them what she wanted for her birthday.
Her Mimi and Pop Pop bought her this easel (the other side is a dry erase board) for her birthday. She loves it and has drawn on it almost every day.
This picture is a drawing Clara made of herself. She has just recently begun drawing pictures of herself. I didn’t realize this was a developmental milestone until the doctor asked at her well check a few days later if she draws pictures of herself with at least three body parts. Hmm.. head, arms, legs… check!
