Mia drew most of these over this past summer, which is when I first started noticing how well she draws. Being new to the mom thing, I didn't know what was normal for her age. I expected stick figures and round heads as a start to drawing. And she does do that sometimes, but some are a little more detailed. She’s pretty good for a little monkey :-) She’s even tried copying a couple of pictures and one of her stuffed animals, which just amazed me. She did a great job. I try to keep an eye on her when I notice her drawing because most of them have been on her Doodlepad and I learned early on that I have to either have my phone ready to snap a picture or actually take it away and snap one before she can erase it. One of the first really good things she drew was what looked like a T-Rex silhouette, but before I could get a picture she erased it and was on to the next thing, so I try not to make that mistake again (but sometimes she’s quick!). When I asked her what it was she said “it’s a dinosaur”, so I don’t know if she drew it on purpose or just recognized it after she drew it? I don’t know if some of them are by accident or not…so being a proud Mamma, we’ll go with not :-) So I’ve been trying to collect what pictures I can get and have been meaning to post them.
I almost didn't catch this one walking out of her room one day. She drew "Map" from Dora.
"Plankton with bubbles" (from Spongebob) I know he doesn't have two eyes, a nose or fangs, but it's still good :-)
Maybe she'll take after my mom and brother and turn out to be a really good little artist.
