Lady Picasso
What do you know, I can color! Every once in the while Daddy puts crayons in my hands and hopes I’ll start scribbling away. I never understood what he meant until one night at Marie Callender’s. After seating us, the hostess just up and assumed I was an avid colorist and plopped a coloring book and three crayons in front of me. Daddy and Mommy figured the paper would distract me for a few microseconds while they settled in.
To their surprise I was more intrigued by the crayons than the paper. Daddy showed me how crayons make marks on paper. I figured, yeah, I can do that. So I was busy dragging the crayons all over the paper for much longer than a microsecond. I only tried to eat them once or twice.
Mommy and Daddy are excited there’s a new distraction for me so they don’t have to eat their own food in a mad rush.
On top of all the crayon excitement I even got to try some new food: Cornbread! It agrees with me and I ate it up.
PS. Daddy drew the smiley faces. I’m not that figurative yet. I’m going through my abstract phase.
