Today was yet another snow day — we got at least a foot, and the roads were a mess. Another advantage of this wintry weather (besides having good conditions for snow tunnels) is that Grace has plenty of inside time to be creative (when she's not jumping off furniture). Today, she made her own game board, complete with little smiley-face game pieces and dice of her own design. Of course, she also made up her own rules, which meant that she was always the winner, but I didn't mind — I'm getting pretty used to losing. 

The other day, Grace made her own flag, and taped it to a spatula so that she could wave it around. Before she made it, though, she wrote down the steps for making a flag so she knew how to properly go about it. I'm not sure what I love more — watching her mind work in new ways, or watching her sit still long enough to complete these projects. [And no, the photo is not backwards — it's her numbers that are backwards.]
