hand/eye update

Hennie has been spending more and more time engrossed in her drawing tablets and we're really excited about everything she does. She seems to get a lot of satisfaction out of it and can spend long uninterrupted stretches in concentration. She's also started to draw objects while sitting in front of them, looking back and forth from her paper and trying to really draw what she sees. I'm sure that most or all of this is probably common, but we think its all brilliant.

from bottom to top, according to hennie's explanation:
the floor, the radiator and the bookshelf/nightstand next to it (w/ rectangular opening), the CD/DVD player sitting on top of that (with the large round volume knob), and the LCD screen (w/ side-mounted speakers) hung on the wall above.

this she did whie we were all sitting in the girls room yesterday drawing. Mette is as happy to make marks as Hennie so far. I was drawing Mette.* Hennie did this when I left the room briefly. She wanted to make sure that Hege & I understood that she'd remembered to draw the single pigtail Mette always wears on the top of her head.

*hennie's was better.
