Weston has been a good help, encouraging Aidan. He is a good older brother. He is always concerned for others and loves helping me.
They have both been coloring. For about three weeks now, daily they color for hours on end. I would estimate two hours of each day is spent coloring pictures. Aidan now tries to make people: a circle with two lines going through it. Good enough for me! And he writes the letter T. He must have learned that from Weston. I guess he draws cars, too, because he brings me papers and tells me that he drew Mater, Lightning, Doc, etc. Sometimes I think he gets the colors right.
Weston is really into Star Wars right now, and so he draws a great Darth Vader, an AMAZING R2D2 and C3PO. He writes books about Star Wars. His latest reads, Title: "The Star Wars Book" (Then his name--"Weston"). First page: "The Darth Vader". The next few pages: pictures of Darth Vader and Luke. Another page: He made up a character named "Stop", so a page has a picture and the words: "The Stop". Then: "Luke saves the day". And finally: The End. Of course I think he is so creative and his drawings are amazing. I love that they color because it is such a good activity and they do it together happily. Brennan sometimes lies beside them and watches them. He has not yet produced a picture for me.
If I had a scanner I would scan some pictures they have drawn, but I am not quite up to speed with the rest of the world. We need a scanner...
