On the 2nd of December we made some Christmas cards!!
Actually, ELIANA made some Christmas cards. First, she made a list of friends she wants to give Christmas cards to.
Then we went up to the craft room and crafted together and chatted. It was WONDERFUL! I have decided that 6 is a magical age where Eliana's interests and my interests overlap and her skills have improved enough that we can spend quality time doing things that we both enjoy, and having conversations that actually have content. Hooray!! It's awesome! We created an assembly line in which I tied on the fringy string and Eliana put the snowflake stickers and Happy Holidays sticker on the cards in her own style. Really, it was a great time, and the cards turned out great!
Well, MOST of the cards turned out great... There was this one card that she decided she was going to draw a nativity in...
It's baby Jesus, Mary, and Joseph in the stable. And Joseph is running away because, in case you can't read the speech bubbles (which have arrows leading to other speech bubbles because, well, Ellie's speech bubble to handwriting size is still a little off...), Joseph is saying, "AAAAA! I forgot my pants!"
Ah, 6 year old humor. Hopefully she'll just be signing her name in the rest of the cards...
