More Drawings

Mama found this email about how someone (another mother) received a drawing from her toddler in kindergarten. Here’s an excerpt of the email; "This is my kindergartener's artistic rendering of a pair of scissors she just showed me. I wonder what her teacher thought about it. But I am so damn proud of myself. I allowed myself just a small smirk when I saw it. I waited until she was out of my room before I started to cry from laughing so hard. I can't wait to show it to my husband!" Here’s the attached drawing; What? What? … What’s wrong with it? That’s a nice picture of a scissor if I do say so myself. Don’t believe me? Show a pair of scissors to your kids and get them to draw it, my guess it will be the same as above.

Colour me good

One of the silver linings when it rains is that I get to do indoor activities. One of this activity is drawing. This also came about because I used to sneak into big bro or big sis room, grabbed one of their exercise book and a pencil/pen/crayon, whichever is available, and start doodling. After getting caught most of the times, my parents decided to let my creative juices flow with my colouring techniques on bigger art paper, supervised of course. This is one of the masterpieces that I had done. Look at the linework, the combinations of colours. Then, papa had to spoil my picture with the clouds and the sun and the swan … He should get his own paper and not share with me. Here’s how I did it. Prone is the way to draw. You’re up close to the paper and the crayon will glide smoothly with every stroke of my arms. Try it if you don’t believe me. Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael and Donatello … those ninja turtles can never come close to the colouring skills that I possess…hihihihi.

Rock me Amadeus!

Recently, papa brought out mama's electronic keyboard from the store. It seems big sis was bitten by the musical bug when she kept on playing with my apple music board which I received for my birthday. So a good enough reason for mama to push papa to get her keyboard from storage. So when nobody was looking, I climbed up the chair and played my version of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Stars. It sounded good to me, by my standards of course but everyone else was shouting for me to stop playing, whilst big bro came and carried me away from my music. How can they expect me to become good if they keep getting me out of the chair? hummpfff.

Sweet Babies

Sugar & Spice & Everything Nice Mama received these pictures in her email the other day. At first, I thought they were tiny babies, but when mama told me they were made from icing sugar, I told her she must be pulling my leg. They looked so lifelike!

The things I have to put up with…sigh. Today, my mama was spring cleaning the kitchen. A flash of an inspiration came and thus the theme for this entry. Spot the fake.
