Leaps and bounds.

Frances is drawing some pretty great pictures these days! She's been scribbling for a while now, but lately she's been drawing faces, complete with arms, legs, and hair. Often she will add extra lines to represent ears, or articles of clothing like shirts and pants.

She's started working on letters too, and is drawing the standard toddler "V", though I have to boast that this doesn't usually show up until the third year. She wanted to know how to draw her favorite letter "W" tonight. I think she's pretty advanced for 25 months!

While I'm boasting ... besides her artistic talent, she can almost sing the entire alphabet and a few other songs, and as you have probably seen by now is a talented dancer. That's what I call a Triple Threat!






Consulting her muse? Note the advanced pen holding technique.
