This little Montessori mind is working every minute! This particular photo was snapped yesterday afternoon when Noni convinced her sister that they could suck the apple juice out of the apple. They tried for a long time. Puncturing the apple with hard curly straws was more than half of the appeal, I'm sure. They did not get much juice out of the apple, and then refused to eat the apples because they were wounded and used.
*sigh*
On another interesting Noni note:
When I asked her what she wanted to do to celebrate her 7th birthday, she said she'd like to have a theme party.
"What kind of theme would you like?"
long pause.
"I'd like to have an 'Art Party.' You know, come dressed up as your favorite artist."
"What artist would you choose, Noni?"
long pause.
"I'd have to pick between these three: Frida Kahlo, Miss Betsy - my art teacher, or me. I think all of these people are my favorite artists. And we're all girls. I might have a hard time finding a Miss Betsy costume, and I'm kinda used to pretending to be me, so I think I'll have to go with Frida Kahlo. Do you think that we could go to Target after dinner to get my Frida Kahlo costume for my birthday?"
Anyone....?!

You and Noni would get along so well. You both speak your mind and have wonderful ideas and are pretty headstrong!
I'm right with Miss Patti.. this post made me so dang happy.. Pictures of Noni Kahlo, please!! :)
I wish Noni could be my date at our neighbor's Halloween party, as I'm going as Andy Warhol. I'm thinking I might be able to find my costume next to hers at Target...in the artist section. Cheers!
