You might mistakedly assume that Aspen is helping out with watering my flower pots but not so. In fact, she is preping for her newest artistic project that she has taken on with both feet (and hands).
Tadah!
Sidewalk water calligraphy!
Somehow she seems to know this is an ancient Chinese way of practicing calligraphy. We saw several people painting their characters on the sidewalk with water at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing last May. She is so clever (and easily entertained). So much fun for a good 45 minutes. No paint, no chalk, no mess... I think this is the perfect summer evening activity especially since the flower pots were completely soaked but her water fascination had not ended.
Not captured on camera was the cute, old, Chinese couple, who live in our neighborhood, out on their evening walk who stopped and watched her and began laughing and joking with us (in Chinese; they speak very little English). I guess they haven't seen this much around here before.
