Henryism number 247

Henry - (very loudly and repeated a number of times) Oh yum! You're a restaurant cooker mum. This is so good. You are like a cooker from a restaurant. A restaurant cooker mum!!!

...we were having toasted cheese sandwiches.

Henry's art

It is only fairly recently that Henry began drawing recognisable objects and figures. It's not something I ever tried to 'steer' him toward and I made a conscious effort to never assume he was drawing 'something'. I wanted him to find his own way.

But figures and things have started to happen and sometimes they are simply remarkable. Not in a 'gee my kid is so talented' kind of way but just in the wonderful 'kids draw wacky stuff' kind of way.

This is what he drew a couple of nights ago. I love them. The one in pink is me and the really awesome blue one with all the crazy hair is Greg.

confession

If there is chocolate in the house, I eat it for breakfast. 

I have a proper breakfast too but without fail the first thing I eat after I arrive in the kitchen, if it is there, is chocolate.

And I'm not ashamed.
