"Here mom, have a cheese car."
Self portrait
In every person-house-tree picture Annabelle draws, there are constants :: always a walkway, always flowers, always smoke coming from the chimney, and the trees are always drawn as giant balls riding on top of thick trunks. Here, and below, she drew angels (a boy and a girl) flying around outside. When I ask her if she is in the picture she says, "I'm inside!"
Just recently she stopped adding windows to the roof portion of the house, but there are often many windows and clouds in the sky.
I had put this drawing aside after Annabelle drew it, until Dave picked it up and asked me, "Do you know what this is? It's her qwerty!" So it is... Annabelle drew the entire keyboard alphabet from memory while sitting at the table. I'm still a little amazed. I love that the last line is completely in reverse.
