Fine Art

The weather is suppose to be getting nicer so I am going to paint. The living room, kitchen, dining room, hall and any other room that has child art on the walls. I have been talking to the kids on how not to draw on the walls once I get the painting done. Mind you wall art around has never really been a big issue with me. They draw on the walls, I take a picture leave it a few days then paint over it. They are always so proud of their artwork , it's really hard to get mad when they say  Mom look I drew you a beautiful picture or look I can write my name, so no big deal. The other day after one of my talks I gave them paper and asked them from now on would they please draw on the paper then we could hang it on the walls. Yes they agreed and proceeded to draw me pictures. A little while later they asked me to come see their art. There hanging on the wall as if by magic was their artwork. I told them they did a great job but how did they get them to stick on the walls. Sophia said," Oh that was easy, we glued them". Sure enough they got out their glue sticks and glued every picture they drew all over the walls. That certainly wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I said we would hang them. Score them a few points for their creativity.
