Quintin loves to draw, he always has. We decorate the sliding glass doors next to our kitchen table with the kids many drawings. I took a few down to share today - so please excuse this mommy gloating post! ;-)
A drawing of one of the many toy gu.ns laying around the house:
Star Wars - Chewbacca, R2D2, a storm trooper, C3PO with various spaceships in the background.
His newest challenge? Drawing Calv.in and Hob.bes. We picked up a used book of Ca.lvin and Hobb.es "There's Tre.asure Every.where" at a book store when we were at the cabin the other weekend.
This was the cartoon he liked:
And here is my budding artist's rendition:
With each drawing, he amazes me. I just wish I could learn how to help him not be such a perfectionist. When he doesn't like what's he drawn, he gets so upset and crumbles up the paper. But his dad tells me that was how he was as a kid...I guess the apple didn't far fall...huh?

That was one of my favorite parts of teaching at the waldorf school—the story-telling and the drawing.
