Definitely.<br /><br />Iota, my thoughts precisely!<br /><br />Irene, here's the thing. Taxis are a form of transport. For Boy #2, there can be no higher form of art. So if he could paint, this would probably be just what he would do.Potty Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04751869800592294891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-7913864506274534432009-05-01T14:43:00.000+01:002009-05-01T14:43:00.000+01:00What a terrible let down, but I am sure that if sh...What a terrible let down, but I am sure that if she had let him use the brush himself he would have produced something akin to a Picasso or a van Gogh.

When I interrupted Johnny Drama in a craft session last week he had given up interest after painting half of his paper plate and his teacher was sitting there finishing it off for him. It's definitely the best piece of art we have on the fridge right now. And noone else needs to know...it's our little secret, ok?Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017352687163694581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-2961314277018185732009-04-30T23:12:00.000+01:002009-04-30T23:12:00.000+01:00Frame it and stick up on his wall and in a week he...Frame it and stick up on his wall and in a week he'll have forgotten she helped him and he'll be able to claim it as his own and no-one will be the wiser.<br /><br />BTW what happened about your Mother's hair?Rebel Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01617410633976239554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-60089148672997423632009-04-30T23:10:00.000+01:002009-04-30T23:10:00.000+01:00Snort, for a minute I was going to boast on the ar...Snort, for a minute I was going to boast on the artistic abilities of my Miss M.
