Lately I have noticed that Madison is obsessed with just a few items. She LOVES anything artsy. She loves to draw, color, paint, fingerpaint, lay-dough (what she calls Playdough), magna doodle, sidewalk chalk. Just over this past week she has developed a new game. She gets a piece of paper and a pen (must be a pen, not a crayon or pencil) and wants me to tell her what to draw or write. She will continue for as long as I let her. She wants to pretend she is writing everyones name in her family, yes lisa she now calls you "auntie", she will write every animal she knows, every color, food item, object I might see she wants me to tell her to write it down. She repeats the word then scribbles something down then tells me the word again when she is done. Don't worry if I forget what she is drawing she will tell me. This can get tiresome for me and honestly I feel like I run out of things for her to write. Since she has been playing this game her vocabulary has improved and she is talking more. She loves art and it keeps her busy. She is very proud of her "work" and wants to show it all off. Today she painted 4 pictures and when Daddy came home from work she was so excited to show him. Later in the evening she was telling me who she was going to give each one to. I love that she is creative!

That is great that she is so artsy - i am trying to get Grant more into this stuff but seems i enjoy it more than him. He is getting more interested but i think Loren will be more artsy this way.
