Morning creativity

Anna decided to draw on the mirror this morning (she asked permission first) since I'd fogged it up so much with my shower. It was interesting to see how she wrote her own name right-to-left, starting at the centre of the mirror, and then wrote Victor's name left-to-right, starting at the centre of the mirror. She then proceeded to draw a ladybug and Benny (her favorite stuffie), and Victor joined in and drew a spider and a Jedi.

When I kicked them out and erased the mirror (so I could shave), Victor decided to write a story; here he had just announced that he was on Chapter 2. I'm curious to actually look at what he was doing, I didn't have the chance this morning. The book is something someone gave him on Valentine's day. I only know that the story was about Jedi Knights (surprising, I know). Anna is describing what is in her sticker book, and declaring that she can only trade stickers now, she can't give away any more stickers or she'll run out. In the past, every time the sticker book has come out she has offered me a choice of stickers (which of course I accept).

Update: OH, the step in front is there because Anna announced she didn't need it anymore this morning, she can reach her light switch without it. And she proceeded to demonstrate, no jumping required, just a bit of tippy-toes. The light switches in this house are mostly rather high, notably higher than the standard encouraged (but not required) by ESA (the Electrical Safety Authority); she's been able to reach standard-height light switches for some time.
