"Because I am an AMAZING Artist"


This was the reason Mia gave when asked about her chalk drawings for Christmas. She did it with quite an artistic flare. The tone was dramatic but the hand swishing that accompanied the "Because I am an amazing artist" declaration was the clincher. It's just too bad that it happened on the chalkboard. That is always how it is. We have a huge roll of blank art paper on the other side of that easel and yet the 'keepers' always end up on some church handout, old envelopes, or as in this case erasable surface. Thank heaven for cameras, blogs, and videos.

And how do you get your kids to do normal smiles when you get the camera out?

are you like that controversial family where the daughter is supposedly a fantastic artist, but people question if it is in fact her parents doing the work?
