My husband and I love getting drawings from my six and a half year old nephew, B, and from my almost five year old niece, T. Here's what they sent us the other day:
A portrait of Larry the tortoise, done by B -
A portrait of Mrs. Larry the tortoise, done by T -
A close up of the Mrs. Larry drawing -
Give it a good look. Okay?
Now here's what's written on the back -
MRS. LARRY WEARING LIPSTICK
(If only I looked as good wearing lipstick. Sigh. Have a good day, everyone!)
At least it wasn't Mr. Larry wearing the lipstick!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha! :)
DeleteAw, those are great! Kids are so wonderfully creative!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I wish I could harness some of that imagination for myself.
DeleteThe creativity of children never ceases to amaze me :)
ReplyDeleteDon't you sometimes wish you could just bottle it up? :)
DeleteWhat an amazing set artwork. I'm sure they'll nurture his creative nature and make even more wonders.
ReplyDeleteThey've done a number of drawings but these two of the tortoises are my favorites. So far. :)
DeleteHow adorable. It's been a lot of years since the frig was covered with art work. I kind of miss it.
ReplyDeleteWe actually hung these on the tortoises' tank. :)
DeleteMaybe you could do some of your own art work and hang that on the fridge. :)
I've been looking for that shade of lipstick!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Mrs. L will let you know where she got it.... :)
DeleteGreat drawings. Perhaps you could try getting your nephew and niece to do your lipstick?
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure they would do a better job…. :)
DeleteLOL! So cute. I love getting drawings from the kids. And Annalisa took the words right out of my mouth. I'd love to find that shade of lipstick too! :D
ReplyDeleteI bet that particular shade is called something like Color de Crayola. :)
DeleteLOL! Kids are amazing. Whew! My daughter has recently started asking to wear makeup, and I'm not going to lie. I don't like it. I mean, what 8 year old needs lipstick and eye shadow and blush? And how did she even get indoctrinated anyway? I mean, we home school for heaven sakes!
ReplyDeleteEek! Maybe you can convince her that Chapstick is close enough to makeup?
DeletePriceless! And so, so adorable.
ReplyDeleteI agree!
DeleteI love that! Mrs. Larry wearing lipstick! Just the thing to make my day. :)
ReplyDeleteI know! Every time I look at the picture itself or here on the blog, it makes me smile. :)
DeleteThis looks so cute! I always enjoy looking at children's artwork.
