"Perfect"

Anthony came up with a new project today. First he found a pen, then he wanted paper (wow, somethings sink in! "We only write on paper" :)). He got paper and came to the couch (OK, that's the next step). I was paying a bill over the phone, so that's where I was. Anyway, he started "writing" on the paper...OK, poking holes in it. Then he tore it into smaller pieces. The other day, I had taped up a picture he colored at daycare on the back of the door (while he was asleep). Well today he took it down, took the tape off of it and stuck the tape to the couch. Then he took one of his torn papers, stuck it to the tape, and said "perfect".



Then he went to the "junk drawer" and got out the roll of tape and started pulling it off the roll. I did help with that (and it was hard for me!) and I rolled it up for him so he could create more art.


He was so proud, but it didn't last too long. Just after the pictures, he took it all down. I guess it's an evolving kind of art...I may have to remember that for the classroom! :)

Now, the things that amaze me-he thought to take the paper down and get the tape off the back, and he knew where the tape was. I didn't even know he knew what it was, let alone where to get it! He's just amazing...he summed it up well....PERFECT!!!
