My Puzzle Girl

The instructions at the top of this page read:

"Color in each spot that has exactly two dots to see the hidden picture."

Now, would you rather poke your eye out with a sharp stick than do this puzzle? Yea, me too.

Some spaces have one dot, some have three. Only color the ones with two dots. One of these puzzles is in each of the Puzzlemania magazines we get each month. Most of the other puzzles, Evelyn can't really do because they're crosswords, word searches, word scrambles. She can't read all that. So this is her thing. Each month.

It takes her like three days working on and off- before bed, in the car, on the couch- but darn it she colors all those spaces that have 2 dots until the hidden picture is revealed.

Not sure exactly what motivates her to tackle a task. Maybe it's that it's something that she can do in the big kids' puzzle book. And that's all it is.

It's her puzzle.
