my artist

Aunt Lisa sent Lily this little drawing pad, and suddenly, she's gone from crazy scribbles to fantastic pieces of art...or at least I think so.

We're catching her in bed at night under the covers with a flashlight, coloring...

Here is this morning's self-portrait:

She couldn't stop long enough to eat breakfast.

This is Lily, above, Mommy and Poppy below, and a caterpillar on the left.  "Sofie is in her crib somewhere else, sleeping."

Sofie, of course, wants to do it if Lily is doing it...but only for about 10 seconds.

This is Poppy, with his new haircut.

This is another caterpillar.

And this is a "silly man".  

I know, I know (Martin :)...she is no Van Gough.

But it's crazy how proud

a mama can be

of three fingers

and a fat red happy face!
