Isabella came home from daycare on Friday with her very first piece of artwork. Of course, we are pretty sure she didn't do much of it, but you can see some scribbles which must be from her. Up on the fridge it went!
Isabella has surprised me with her ability to draw on her Doodleboard. When she got it for her birthday I thought that will be nice for her a little later. But, right away she knew what to do with it and loves it. Sometimes makes me wonder what else she can do that I think she's still too young for. I find it interesting that she only uses her right hand to draw. I thought most kids were supposed to be ambidextrous until 2 or 3, but she seems like she must be right-handed. A little disappointing since I am left-handed, but then I seem to remember as an uptight little girl being worried about if there would be left-handed scissors available to me if I went somewhere to do crafts. My mom tells me when I went bowling with the neighbors they came back and said they had to keep moving the ball to my right hand. I must have been too quiet to tell them otherwise. And then there's the whole eating at the table thing, ... leftys are always supposed to sit next to each other. Luckily Stacey was also left-handed, and helped me through whatever other hurdles we had as leftys. So, maybe it is best that Isabella is a righty, but.. six of the last 12 presidents have been leftys (5 of the last 7 have been left-handed), a very high percentage considering only about 1 in 10 people are left-handed. So, hooray for leftys, but Isabella, it doesn't look like you'll be one of them.
