Sorry for the delay. School's been keeping me busy lol.

As her uncle worked on the figurine, Parker had her eyes glued to every cut of the knife against the wood, shaving off small curls that in themselves looked interesting. Right before her golden gaze the figurine became more wolf-like, her uncle giving life to the wood as he shaped it. She would love to be able to do this some day, though she would have to grow up a bit more first. She needed to be able to shift forms like the adults. Carving required the use of hands, not paws. Come to think of it there were many activities that Parker wished to do that required a bipedal form. That did not bother her too much, as she could spend lots of time watching and learning about the things that interested her at this stage in her life. She would be able to put her knowledge to practice when she could shift.

With a few more carves the figurine was set down for her to inspect, which she did eagerly, leaning forward to get a closer look. Uncle Ehno then asked her opinion on what to do with the figurine. He wanted to make it look like her! And he wanted to make the others look like more of her family. She could just see the figurines that would end up looking like Artemis and Silvano. With the amount of detail that her uncle put into these figurines, he would without a doubt be able to capture their personalities in wooden form. The sunshine girl immediately expressed her approval with a wide-eyed smile and an excited nod of her head. She was both very flattered and eager to see the finished product. She would watch Ehno every step of the way if she could, and right now she showed no signs of running out of energy. It took a lot to tire Parker out, and fortunately she was nowhere near that point. Her body was full of energy which she was happy to direct towards focusing on Uncle Ehno's skilled hands and carving blade.
