last night lucy brought this artwork to john and said it was a "sope-sir". i said "soap" something? she said no, and that's about as close as we could get to figuring out what she was saying. this morning it dawned on me: sculpture! when she woke i asked her if it was a sculpture and she very excitedly confirmed my guess. i am very proud of her for her abstract artwork. she was getting frustrated with me trying to guess "what" her artwork was, it's just artwork. i should have known. i'm choosing to take the credit for her artistic endeavors. though i have a sneaky suspicion that even though we've talked about sculptures a bit, it may have been a focus on sesame street yesterday...
the secret letters she's been "writing" to us are definatly cartoon spawn however. 'super why' is one of her favorite pbs cartoons; where the superheros have amazing abilities such as spelling power, rhyming power, and the power to read. a couple weeks ago on the show there was a kid writing secret notes, and lucy jumped on this idea with all her 3 year old gusto. she now is constantly hiding secret notes for us all over the house. she then hides and waits for us to find them and her. (i hate to say that sometimes i draw out this "finding" period to get a couple of things done... and since her hiding places are getting more and more tricky, she expects it). we write notes to her too. here's a sample of one of the many notes she has created.

What a fun game. And what artistry! You can totally take credit for her sculptress talents. I mean, I didn't see any METAL in that sculpture...
Maybe she was writing "scripture." Other works will come forth it says, or something like that.
