Lately Maya has been obsessed with "sketching." She has taught me that since she uses a pencil, that is what it is called. The only thing she likes to sketch is animals, and so it is a very good thing that we have hundreds of stuffed animals for her to choose from. She is actually pretty good at it. She will go and choose an animal, put them on a box on the floor in front of her, and sit down and start sketching. While she is sketching she is thinking about who to send her creation to. She wants the animal to somehow correspond with the person she wants it to go to. Keep an eye on your mailbox, because I have been given a large stack of finished sketches to send off.
