"A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.
"
-Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I am so lucky to get to watch imagination grow and blossom in my daughter. My own imagination was my best companion and near-constant entertainment while I was growing up, and I know it will serve her well.
I noticed it yesterday when she carried her baby doll around for more than a few seconds, her usual span of attention for the dolly. She handed the baby to me for me to take care of, so I obliged, but she took her back almost immediately. Then she piled the baby along with Elmo an a dress-up hat into a special box for safe keeping.
Also, we had quite the dress up day yesterday, as Maeve insisted on wearing her sparkly pink shoes to the store, and wore both her superman cape and a princess dress within a few hours. So I'll treat you to a few of those dress up pictures and wish you a very good weekend full of imagination!
