Proof From My Promising Artist.

So yesterday my 2 year old got his hands on a permanent red marker without me knowing. I discovered him with it a few minutes after he had marked up a few of my treasured cat trinkets. Oh, I know what you are saying. The marker shouldn't have been within his reach. Well, you can blame that one on the hubs. He has a weird obsession with sharpies and he just so happened to leave one lying around. The red will NOT come off ever but I'll keep them in their places anyway.
I was reading about artists on the Internet (where else?) and a Princeton definition says that an artist is a person whose creative work shows sensitivity and imagination. Well, my toddler has the imagination part but he's going to have to work on the sensitivity part considering he chose one of my favorite pieces of junk to draw on...

Oh! Isn't that how it goes?
Julia got a hold of a black marker and colored my Tater bin, recently.
Well, now your cats have some added character.
My oldest three had the mutant gene and rarely colored on anything but paper so I was unprepared for #4 who did walls, books, whatever she could get her hands on. Grr.
Oh No! I have yet to experience the permanent damage, although I found some crayon markings on the window of all places!
