Stuff My Kid Made

When my son was 4, he made a series of “dad portraits”.

Currently, I'm really banking on my 7 year old finding that Mother's Day card that she said she made in school. Considering the things she forgets at school, I may need a contingency plan.

Love this! I see Princess Leia in a tank top, standing in a sassy hip-tilt pose.

For Father’s day.

My younger boy has a bit of a mean streak and likes to corrupt his older brother. Looks like I'll be walking the plank this Father's day.

You know that uncle with the inappropriate gifts the kid always loves…..

Here's a drawing of a shark and an octopus my son made a couple of months ago, just before his 5th birthday. I just realized today that (I think) that's a treasure chest behind the shark. This is one of his better drawings, and I love it. It resembles to me a picture an adult would draw when trying to emulate a child's drawing.

Around the same time he got mad at me one evening (for being a responsible dad, as usual), stormed off yelling that he didn't want me anymore, and came back later with a stick figure drawing of me with a big X over it. I got a little upset with him for that, which I soon regretted and apologized for. That drawing isn't on display like this one, but it's filed away somewhere safe.
