The six-year-old has some advice for everyone. He also drew this picture of me:
The morning after
“I take the opportunity each day offers.”
—Andy Goldsworthy
I usually feel a tremendous letdown the morning after Christmas — major “What next?” pangs — but this morning the sun came out so we walked our cranky selves down to the beach and made a bunch of driftwood sculptures. (This afternoon we might watch Rivers and Tides.)
You draw me and I’ll draw you
6-year-old was getting hangry at the pizza joint so I suggested we draw each other’s portraits. He wins again.
Phew that was a close one
Sometimes when the 6-year-old and I get mad at each other we just pass notes back and forth under his bedroom door.
Day of the Dead
When you have kids you always find all this weird half-finished stuff lying around the house. (Half-finished drawings, half-finished bananas, etc.) I found this comic on the kitchen table, drawn by Owen at age 5. (“Julese” is his 3-year-old brother, Jules.) Drawn in a comic book notebook by The Unemployed Philsopher’s Guild.
