Our Budding Michelangelo....

.......the artist, not the Ninja Turtle.


Erica likes to draw pictures during Church.  Every week she creates a masterpiece that she then folds carefully and presents to David at the end of sacrament meeting.

A few weeks ago Erica decided to draw a picture for me!  I felt very privileged because she doesn't select me as her recipient very often.  I unfolded my little package to reveal the picture above.  Erica explained to me that she had drawn a picture of me walking a moose - as you do.

I whispered to Erica how great her drawing was, then asked her if she would also like to draw a picture for Daddy.  She whispered "no I don't need to, I'll just give him that one" and took back my picture!  She then later presented the drawing to David telling him that it was a picture of him walking a moose.

I felt slightly disappointed that my gift was rescinded, but on the other hand I was also impressed with Erica's desire for maximum efficiency.
