Family Portrait


Yesterday Camryn was doing some drawing while I made dinner. When she was through, she had produced the Bailey family's first official family portrait. Cool! We're all represented, but let me explain it to you, just in case you can't figure out who's who.

Daddy is purple. (She said she couldn't draw his hat. Sorry Dad.) Mommy is blue and has long legs. (True). Baby Aubrey is green, and is in the left hand corner, laying down. (Makes sense.) Camryn is red and is upside down. When I asked about this, she said she was doing a somersault. (Also makes sense.) Maggie (our cat) is in green in the lower right hand corner. (Notice the big ears, four legs, and prominent tail.) Oh, and in the top left hand corner is an orange and yellow sun that got cut off. (Just in case you were wondering.) :)

I had to laugh at her explanations, because they were all so well founded. I think it's fair to say that Camryn's quite perceptive. She appears to be just as detail oriented as her mother. (Poor thing. It's a curse.) She notices tiny things, and remembers them always.

Oh, and in case you're interested in ever viewing the original work of art, our portrait is now framed and hanging in our kitchen for all to see. Feel free to come on by for an exclusive viewing! :)

That is actually very good!
She will become a great artist if she has that ability to paint and draw from memory and remember it!
