As I mentioned in my last post, Logan loves to draw! Give him a piece of paper and something to draw with, and he'll be content for quite a while. What is so interesting to me is how slowly and carefully he draws. Nothing he draws is a scribble; each line and each circle is thought out and meticulously placed. Even filling in a shape is a methodical and deliberate process. It's fascinating to watch.
Today, what started off as a name writing practice, quickly became a major doodle fest! He did write his name for the first time (shown directly under my letters, beginning with the backward letter 'L' - so cute!), but decided to move onto more exciting things after that.
As he drew, he told me the story of his drawing. Each person he drew had a made up name (
Punky,
Lunky, and
Dunky are just a few that I remember) and unique characteristics like one eye, no hair, one leg, etc. Some were happy because they were good guys and some were sad because they were bad guys. The only "real" person in the drawing was Hannah (his all-time favorite subject to draw), wearing her signature piggy tails. He said they were all running to get in the door because it was snowing (see all the snowflakes and snowballs flying?). Then he drew party hats on everyone and said that there was a birthday party inside the door too.
