Forgive the clearly besotted parent, but if you are just like me, seeing your two and a half doodle and draw harpzardly on pieces of paper without any direction for the past year, you can understand why a event like this causes a stir!
Shannon's teachers have been mentioning that she needs to put more effort in her drawing colouring skills, coz she doesn't use much strength in colouring, so her art work normally turns out pretty dismal, a few lightly coloured 'chicken scratches' on the paper, and she will declare it's done. Actually, I can identify with that, I used to hate colouring, was always too lazy to sit properly at the table, and use effort to press my colouring pencil and diligently cover the whole area consistently.... genes really do pass down, you see?
Anyway, other then a love for painting everything in sight BLACK, (and she can say that black is her favourite colour, ohmigod, I hope we aren't raising a future Morph!) her drawing is likewise dismal.... just a few doodles, circles, and lines here and there, and she's done.
Today however, I left her by the table with paper and pen and went for my shower. When I came back, my dear little daughter proudly showed me her masterpiece. And boy was I shocked! Gong Gong and Po Po tesified that she did it all by herself, without any help from anyone.
She later proudly declared that it was a drawing 'Baby Cayden and Shannon'...
