Just Thursday

"Do you believe in me?"
"Mm hmm." Unequivocally.
"Good." says She.
There have been lots of questions and supposes like that today. I wish I could remember them all.

We started on some metal art today... with metal sheets, that is.
Madd drew this lion [RARR!] to set into the metal sheet.

Puzzelts.

Carnage

Musical Instruments.
"Mom. C'mere. ' Got somethin' to show you."
Then, "See this? This..." points to the lamp, "...is the Sun. This side of the Earth is where the people are. The people are in the dark! See here?" points to the side near the lamp, "...this is where the dinosaurs are. Now!.." she continues, "What happens? The earth turns, this way, and...."
Quite right. The sun rises on the other part of the world.
She's got it, you know.
Robots were our Create! and Art today.

Little dabs of silver acrylic paint upon black construction paper for background..

All is happy and Right in our world, then.
