Another picture: playmates crowd around a kitchen table, a variety of leaves and flowers gathered at the center, along with paper and coloring materials. Each is busy shading their page, pressing it over a leaf, applying pressure with a pencil, repeating the process with the next. Recall the wonder at seeing each crease transfer onto the sheet, a record of an individual leaf that would have otherwise returned back to the earth, unremembered. The process mirrors how small gestures, habits, and play of childhood are pressed upon our memories, things that are apparently insignificant but lasting.
