Stevie recently brought home a permission slip from her art teacher. It was asking for our "blessing" to allow her to log into an online art account to access projects she'd done at school. Being the terrible mother that I am, I laid the paperwork aside cause I mean - who REALLY takes an interest in their kid's stick figures and scribbles? Stevie asked after a few days if I'd set up her account for Artsonia, and I guiltily admitted that I hadn't, but I would. (I could obviously see that it was important to her.)
I had Nicolas set it up this week while I was at work. When I got home and logged in to see what this awesome "art stuff" was all about, my daughter's artwork took my breath away. I NEVER knew she had it in her... I was always less than impressed with her lack of effort into the annual fire prevention poster contest. She can color in a book, but nothing extraordinary. But as I stared back at the art on the screen - I was floored.

This, from my 9 yr old. A 4th grader. (I'm 32 and I STILL can't do this.) I am so very proud of her :D
