We have a chalkboard in our kitchen for writing menus, shopping lists, shooting gastrokid stuff. I came home the other day to this drawing by 7 year old Violet. It reads: “Favorite Foods: Eggs, Greens, Blues.” She tells me blues are blueberries, blue berry scones, and blue corn chips. I like its poetry, I like the way the letters stack on top of each other to fit the narrow end of the heart.

I love it too! I absolutely love the absolute creativeness of children’s writing. Too bad we all grow out of it at some point.
