Watercolors brought out after a long repose. He seems to have more patience with them now. I love how he gravitated towards my own favorite colors and put them in little swatches. I watch him walk to the fridge and touch the papers, “look at all my colors, i painted them” he says over and over.

Below, he received a homemade card from his Poppi with flaps over pictures to lift. He asked to make “doors” too, so we did, it was so fun! And hurrah, he got to use his favorite adhesive, tape! I drew monsters and spiders for him to hide under his scribbled doors, howling and cringing in fear for his little boy humor. Thought- speaking of little paper doors, I think my husband should design advent calenders, I couldn’t help but remember the beautiful ones from my childhood sent over from “grandparents’ in Switzerland ever year.
