He will decorate his wall.
And when he decorates his wall you will find...
A spider
(the circle on the left with a gazillion legs)
And "letters"
(the zig zags all the way across the bottom of the wall)
And rain.
One long, thin band of rain. It's trying to "wash the spider out".
It also appears that there might be some kind of monster, several giant circles, and lots of little tiny dots. These weren't pointed out when he was describing his artwork to me, so I'm just left to guess what they might be.
And you know what? I'm TOTALLY okay with this being on the wall. It's his wall. In his room. Beside his bed. And he's very proud of it. Shoot, I'm proud of it too. It's a well thought out mural for a just-turned-three year old. Sure, it would have been nicer if it had been on paper. We'll have that discussion later. For now, we're letting him be proud of the hard work he put forth on his "masterpiece" and hoping not to ever steal his creativity from him.
Oh my gosh, he is too smart!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that I had noticed that you knew what everything was on the wall so I sensed pride in his artwork. When our twins were about 3 they did the very same thing on our refrigerator with permanent marker and were so proud to tell me that it was our family all happy. I dare anyone to get mad about that! I would keep it too...these moments are too few and too short!
ReplyDeleteExactly, Stephanie! They're learning so much and I love watching them take pride in what they do. Even if it's on the wall. :)
