Kylie's Self Portrait

The girls are both super artsy and love to draw, color, paint, stamp, etc. They are constantly pulling out paper and other various supplies and creating something.

(And I am constantly conflicted as I sort through their masterpieces and try to decide which to keep and which to throw away.... I feel like such a bad mommy each time I toss something - not to mention the fact that I have to be ultra stealthy about it because their little hearts break into a thousand pieces if they find their art in the garbage. But I digress....)

It is commonplace for the girls to proudly present to me their works of art. Kylie recently brought me a "present" (a folded up piece of paper) and told me to open it.

Drawn inside was a green stick person (bearing a striking resemblance to Mike Wizowski from Monster's Inc.) which Kylie informed me was a picture of her. I oooh'd and ahhhh'd appropriately, but then she plucked it back from my hands and told me she forgot something.

She got out a yellow crayon and quickly added to her picture, then handed it back. There was now a vertical yellow line in between the legs of the stick person.

Kylie said, "It's a picture of me going potty."

Oh. Very, um... interesting....
