An artist in the making

We have been spending a lot of time doing crafts lately. Due to swine flu and rainy days, it seems our coloring, cutting and painting time has been expanded.

the other day, Allie drew this picture...

and then promptly explained it was a butterfly, wind, sunshine and flower.... (the blue circle like thing is the wind... it has been windy around here lately, so she has wind on the brain).

We also had some painting time, and I was so impressed with her work. For some reason, she is fixated on butterflies and on huskies (though the huskie is explained easily by her best friends... )

She loves arts and crafts and saw on tv where you trace your hand to make a turkey... she insisted on doing that over and over again!!
