Tatum is always planning. I did not know this the other day when she just casually picked up a coloring sheet from her school. No big deal, right?
Well, it was because in the back of her mind she planned on creating a ring from it. She strategically picked a super hero and a dog, and carefully cut it out. Then, she glued it in a circle around her finger and made a design for the top.
This is the norm in our house. If she sees something that she wants, instead of saying, “Will you buy that for me?”, she’ll make a copy of it.
The other day, she needed a shield to help her stop sucking her fingers (another post for another day AYE!), so instead of asking me for one, she made one. Proactively. On her own volition.
I love her brain. I love her creative mind, and I tell her all of the time.
