There is no happy day without their smile and there is no greater worry than their cry. They can easily turn our world upside down and paralyze any work, no matter how important it may be.

Their happiness is full when they dress up or when they sing a song to a doll, or when they fervently believe that their scribbling on paper is a symbol of the sun, a dog or a house.
Sleeplessness is a constant state, with touches of startle. For them, order is a utopia, as they never cease to surprise their mischief with toys, crayons and whatever objects are within their reach.
