Getting Charley to hold a writing utensil of any kind is a challenge. Getting him to print letters is damn near impossible. I could give you a full essay about Aspergers and the related fine-motor deficiencies, but just know that this is kind of a standard issue for these kids. Actually, I just came back from a meeting at school where his team discussed how we can get him to write out words in his daily journal. He's such a clever little monkey that he's managed to convince them to read him a book every time he writes out a 4 word sentence. Manipulator alert!
He has, however, discovered drawing recently. I know it must look like a feeble effort for a 6 year old, but, trust me, this is amazing stuff, relatively speaking! Plus, the stories he tells about the drawings are always good for a laugh.
Notice all the vegetables growing in our garden.
Love the detail. And the multiple heads.

Possibly Mom as a horse. Or a giraffe?
I love kid art. I'll have to do a post of some of Sam's stuff soon. It's awesome too!
