Eamon: "Those aren't flowers."
Me: "Oh. Um, well, can you tell me about your drawing then...?"
Eamon: "It's a picture of flying guys w/ no arms."
Me: "What?! Ok, I guess I can see that for the drawing on the left but this one on the right is clearly the petals of a flower."
Eamon: "Those aren't flower petals. That's one flying guy exploding, mom!"
Marti: <stunned silence>
Mark: "Oh, yeah, I can see the body parts flying off in different directions! Nice work, son!"
Marti: <More stunned silence>
Mark: "It's a guy thing, babe."
Flower or flying/exploding guys? You be the judge!
(Please note that due to the light color of the crayons not showing up in the scan, I had to photocopy it very dark and then trace his drawings using dark markers but otherwise, everything is as he drew it)
wow, that's really good!
