We have a giant roll of paper in the kitchen which the boys tear off desired lengths from and create their own works of art.  We have a box of crayons, markers, stickers, scissors etc. they use to get the job done with.  I love seeing what they come up with!

Last night they were at it while I was doing dishes.  The 4yr old finished his and said "look what I made mommy!"  I glanced and said "That's wonderful....what is it?"  He pointed out a rainbow which was very recognizable.  Under the rainbow there were things he liked or I liked.  There was a cupcake for him, cup of coffee for me, there was a bandaid, Mr Crabs from Spongebob then he got to the last item and asked me what it was.  I told him I thought it looked like a hot dog and he said "Oh yeah!  A hot dog!"

I put the masterpiece in the kitchen along with other artwork from him and his brother and get a grin each time I look at my gallery.  My little guy caught me grinning a couple of minutes ago and asked me what I was doing.  I told him I was just being happy by looking at his artwork.  He replied "I'm so happy mom, because of you."  I'm such a lucky mommy!
