Adrian and I agreed that we would raise a scientist, and not another artist. It appears we are already failing in this area. Amira spends most of her free time at home drawing and painting. And of course placing stickers on everything. She asks us to draw all kinds of characters for her, Shrek, Fiona, Batman, Aunt Alima, Mommy, Daddy, Amira etc. Now she is starting to add parts of the people in herself, "Mira draws eyes" drawing two little scribbles for the eyes, or a scribble for the mouth. She colors on top of our drawing attempting to "trace" which she does at school with her name. So, I guess we have another artist to add to the family, but we will still strive to have a well rounded child, science included.
