Art time

Last weekend we took my mom out for a birthday dinner. I had Audrey draw on the birthday card envelope and it was really good! Forrest was sad that he didn't get to keep her first drawing. I didn't really think about that and I felt kinda bad for giving away her first drawing. 

Well almost every day since then we've had art time so that Audrey can practice her drawing skills. I know she's only 5 months old, but I don't think it's too early. The more we do it, the more she seems to take an interest in it. We've got four pictures up on the refrigerator right now. It's probably just my wishful thinking but I think I'm seeing some improvement. It's still just scribbles of course, but she draws differently with different colors. 

I'm really excited about this and so is Forrest. He tried to help her draw once but got frustrated because it's kind of difficult. He's not as patient and admits he's not a very good teacher. So he's glad that I'm encouraging her and working with her.

I'll post her drawing soon so everyone can see what a great artist she is!
