babies and dragons

i saw lots of babies with their moms and dragons when we went to the detroit institute of art this weekend with aunt shekini and uncle darryl. we had so much fun. in the african art section there were all these statues of moms who were holding their babies (a favorite word of mine -- "baby" -- i like to visit the babies at school in my old room). and then when we were in the asian section, there were all these dragon masks. they looked like dinosaurs! it was so cool...i kept growling at them and everyone laughed and said how cute i was. heehee...i'll do anything to hear that! i love an audience.

after we went through the galleries, we went to this big area that mama thought i would like. there were huge walls that had paintings on them. they were really cool and there was a ton to see in them. mom said every time she goes there she discovers something new. she showed me a star on a man's shirt in the painting even. but, all i really wanted to do was show aunt shekini and uncle darryl how big i was and that i could push my stroller. i like this stroller best instead of my big one for pushing...it's smaller and not as heavy and has handles i can reach.
oh, i almost forgot. i also got to make a mask! we took all these scraps of paper from magazines and books and just plain paper and cut them up. then we glued them onto other paper and glued that paper onto a stick. then mom tied a string with beads on it for me to hold on to. it turned out very cool!
