"It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child."

Welcome to Magic Marker Monday! If you haven't heard about Magic Marker Monday yet, click here and then hurry right back…

This little guy is my favorite doodle for the week. It has been so fun to watch my daughter's confidence growing in her ability to draw — I actually found her copying this picture from a photograph in a book and she was so proud of her finished drawing!
… And so is her mom

That is so cute! She is really doing a great job. I can't draw that well. Not that that's saying much. But still, she's really good.

Proud indeed. Self esteem, mastery and growth through learning as so under valued.
Best wishes

This is very good! I'm so impressed. Wish she could give my kids art lessons.
