Innovative
At church this week,
we brought stuff for the kids to color with (i.e. crayons, coloring books,
etc). Russell really wanted to color, but since he can't bend at the waist and
he has short arms, it's very difficult for him to reach down and color a paper
on the floor. All the chairs were taken (it was crowded!), so he couldn't color
on a chair.
He tried laying flat
on his tummy, but again the cast makes it hard for him to hold his head up or to
put his arms out in front of him to hold himself up.
Scott and I were
watching him, feeling bad for him because he was getting frustrated with this,
and wondering what we could do to help him, when I started feeling a tickling on
my legs.
I glanced down and
he was coloring on my legs. I was wearing a knee length skirt and white nylons,
and I didn't think crayons worked on nylons, so I didn't worry about it.
However, I started
doubting this thought when he kept coloring, and was no longer frustrated. I
looked closer.
Crayons do indeed
work on nylons. LOL.
