She will scribble little expressions of love for our little family. Her interpretation of spelling words. Lots of different campaigns - charity signboards, party invitations, royal propositions. Plenty of sketches depicting her moods - mountainous landscapes, villages, gardens, palaces. Once, she even attempted to replicate a quarter of the cityscape that Stephen Wiltshire drew of Singapore.
And I really love coming home, seeing different pieces of scrap papers that she will leave behind at all times. Like what Big Bee told me today, "Sometimes, I just cannot bear to throw away a messy scrap piece of paper with a touching note from mei-mei, like 'I love you, jie-jie' or 'Thank you for teaching me, jie-jie', decorated with lots of hearts!"
And it is true. Although Little Bee's random doodles and sketches are not on huge canvas boards, and many of them are scribbled quickly, in her signature rapid style, the messages are often heartfelt, authentic, witty, personal and touching. And they just represent who she is and how good she is with people. So we ended up hoarding loads of her cute little scribbles all over our house!
Now, can anyone suggest a good place to keep all these small little notes?!

| This was something she drew for Auntie Jeanne's birthday card |
 |
| Yes, she doodled on test papers as well |
 |
| One of her many "happy family" and "love makes the world goes round" types of campaign drawings :) |
 |
| This was doodled on a school assignment, probably during lesson time, because I saw the teacher writing cheekily to her to ask if she had been paying attention in class :P |
