merry me

 i usually don't coordinate the blog with holidays, but, i ran across this little card i made when i was only 3 years old (turned 4 the following april). it is a greeting card for my doll (i was not creative with names, i just called my doll *baby*) notice that i was already writing in cursive to sign my name. it is less than 2"x2".  one of my parents drew the straight lines for me. i was pretty obsessed with writing from a very early age.

i have a few bits of paper from my childhood and they always make me smile.

best wishes for happy holidays to all my penpals.

  2. To write like that at 3. Amazing. Plus you must have known how to use paste. The fact that you still have it, also amazing.

    1. Yes, I am grateful that my mom recognized and saved a few of the really special items from my early works. She also bought me a chalkboard which provided hours of penmanship practice.
