*WARNING* If you are a neat freak, you probably don't want to see these pictures. I find them very disturbing.
Our son, Ry-man, has a problem. It's more of a creativity problem, so perhaps not a problem at all. The last several months he has been addicted to drawing. He goes through 50-100 pieces of paper each and every day. Tree huggers, close your eyes.
Other than the perpetual mess on my living room floor, I am completely enjoying this addiction. I love to listen to him illustrate his drawings. There is a LOT of action involved in these pictures!He loves each illustration and can tell me exactly what is happening in each one.
Just in the last week his office has included: Horatius at the Bridge re-enactment company, Civil War artifacts, battle scene re-enactment and book company, a medical clinic and a medical school, and a Star Wars something or other.
And then yesterday, because I couldn't stand it any longer {somebody please send this kid a filing cabinet!}, I helped him pick up about 200 sheets of paper {when he wasn't looking} and donated them to the recycling bin. A few hours later, Ryland had placed Crime Scene tape around his office {that's a completely different subject on why my kids have crime scene tape to play with. . .} so I'm thinking he probably noticed some papers were missing. Ugh!
Today, his office is home base for a detective agency. So far, though, I have not been interrogated.
Creative kids make me smile!
We go through tons of paper around here too - what fun to see that sweet creativity. I like to think we're supporting the logging industry. :) (and I see one of our favorite Richard Scarry's must be one of yours too!)
