This is interesting as I try to see into the mind of my little sparkle girl. She can draw a person, quite well, when she wishes. She doesn't normally choose to. I look at the drawings by the other kids and there's the big head, minimal facial features, stick arms/legs, fingers, toes, sometimes a body mostly not. And there's this. What I've learned is if I ask Erin the right questions she can point out to me what she intended - often accentuating the feature she's focused on. Big tummy for when she has a bonk there, eyes when she's thinking about looking at something, etc. Her vision is truly her own.
