Mom, Come See What I Color

We were in the middle of making pizza for dinner, and we’d left the dough to rise.  The baby needed nursing, so I sat down at the computer to feed him.  I guess that was the big mistake…

I left Alex playing with his trucks at the kitchen table, which can usually occupy him forever.  A few minutes went by, though, and it got a little quiet.  I called out, “Everything okay, Alex?”  (As if he’s going to answer truthfully?!)

He ran into the office and said, “Mom, come see what I color!”

Wanna see his pretty picture?

I don’t keep crayons out, but I did leave the diaper bag within his reach…which had a few restaurant crayons in it.

Isn’t it pretty?  Thank goodness for Oxy-Clean!  We’re waiting for the covers to finish crying, but we think it all came out.

Thanks, Dad, for the suggestion to check Crayola’s website…and Mom for reminding me of the messes I made when I was Alex’s age ;)
