collage

Today was our first real, non-vacation day since Ella has been out of school. So we were back to our normal long afternoons together while Simon napped. She helped me clean bathrooms and hung out with me while I fed the baby. But then we had a good chunk of time doing some art projects at the kitchen table while Josie slept. We decided to make a collage and I helped Ella pick out pieces to cut and helped her with some of the more detailed trimming. She ultimately created this though:

Pretty crazy, right? The shiny globs are mounds of glitter glue that she decorated with after we assembled our collage. She enjoyed this new project so much. As we worked together she said, "Mom. This is SO FUN. I could do this ALL DAY!"
