LinnyMan, collector of stories, kind person to women/children/doggies, generous sharer of treasures..... Have little vignette for you, “Scarlett and The Sherds”
Scarlett comes to my house to visit my daughter and son-in-law, her father. She’s curious and mobile, like most just-turned 3 yr olds. However, she is also precocious, graceful, and very, very clever (making her likable by certain people who generally don’t like little kids). Scarlett skips and sings and sometimes shrieks, but doesn’t run amok thru eclectic decor (an interior decorator once told me that’s what I had....). She delicately maneuvers around museum reproductions, plants, fossils, funky sticks, rocks, BIG dogs, artworks, and other treasures, pausing often to examine them. Once after thoroughly checking out a rock, she declared in her little baby voice that “ dis one wanna go back in a ga’den”. To me, this sounds like Forum advising: “Leave it.”
Sherds are house’s most recent display, laid out in an appealing array (see pic above). Nearby is a colorful mosaic, its tiles approximately same size sherds. Scarlett immediately noticed pottery pieces, and after a cursory inventory, began placing each sherd on mosaic tile of corresponding size and shape. After intense and careful work exhausting sherd supply, Scarlett looked up and around the room, asking “where’s more?”
LinnyMan, I only promised no glue, not little fingers. Besides, I foresee those fingers growing, belonging to another companion with whom I can share adventures!
