Her hair was being backlit in a really funny way as we sat reading "Der Kleine Autobus," so I took a few photos... You can't see her hair that well, but she does know how to read books by herself, remembering the rhymes or describing the pictures to me...

After reading, she relaxed on the sofa.
img_1951.jpg For those not up on your child developmental psychology, this is a typical toddler drawing of a person. Note the mouth, eyes, and ears, with a bit of hair across the top of the blob-head.

4. Some arms down the side, though you can't see them in the final version

5. This is the mouth
