This is just one of those things as a mother that I was so excited about. I called my mom to tell her what Chloe has been doing and told her that I'd post her drawing on my blog so she could see. So, if you don't mind the little brag session about Chloe so that my mom can see just how smart I think she is (OK...I'm a little over the top about this!), feel free to read on.
On the first day of Christmas break for Dave last month, Chloe decided she wanted to color her dad a picture while he slept in a little. I got her out some paper and the markers and set her on the table while I worked on doing the morning dishes. Up until now she didn't really ever draw anything particular. She kind of scribbled around and drew circles and stuff. About twenty minutes had gone by and I came to check on her project. When I first looked at it, I thought, "Well...which brother helped you do this, Chloe?" Then I realized that they were all at school still and that she had done this herself.
This was the first time that she actually drew little figures for people. I liked how she drew herself and her dad. She, with the longer hair and her Dad, with the shorter hair. She even got the faces pretty right. Then, the most amazing thing to me was the fact that she wrote his name down the side of the daddy figure! Wow!
This little girl loves her dad. She's got her dad wrapped right around her finger too!
