Family Trees

Brynn spends quite a bit of time in self-imposed, self-regulated creativity tasks from face painting to dressing up dogs, to training dogs for gymkhanas (!) . After dark, indoor creativity includes drawing and colouring-in of a wide variety of subjects.

Last night, whilst everyone else was watching a Macbeth video (one of Tyler’s set works for this year), she busied herself in a corner with her pack of crayons and papers. This morning, our family tree appeared on the fridge door as a new art creation.

Quite apparently the dogs took pride of place in this line-up, although we should possibly not read too much into the sequence in which she displayed the individual pages.

Interestingly, the cats and dogs get to sit outside on the lawn, with Sophie in the sunshine. Clearly, females have curly (squiggly) hair and the boys get straight, mine quite obviously thinning.

If you look closely at the family tree display, you will see that Sophie’s left rear paw has her name inscribed on it. This is factually correct, as Brynn previously wrote all over her plaster cast on her foot. The bandages are due to be removed in three or four days time.
