A Halloween Picture from Inwe


This kid just adores coloring. She got to color this at our gym's Kid Zone this week. (Phill and I have been meeting there with the kids after his work. I walk the track with Finwe in the Baby Bjorn carrier, the girls play in the Kid Zone, and Phill does something cardiovascular. It's a good time for all of us.)

Please take a look at how she signed her name. It is backwards and mirror image. This is very much like the Codex Leicester of Leonardo Da Vinci. I asked her if she meant to write it this way. Her answer was emphatic. "Of course I meant to write it that way. You have to look in the mirror to read it." She astounds me some days. And this same kid decides that she can't read the word "this".

Nice artwork but a switchplate would be soooo much better!

Can I just say that I read the blog so much that I almost forgot the girls real names! I was trying to see inwe backwards in the picture.
