Artistry

My three-year old is at the age where she likes to draw people that look like Pacman ghosts. Her figures are getting more realistic faces, but the limbs are sticks that protrude from the head with no torso, as is common at that age.

My wife was trying to help her see this and began to draw a simple figure. She had only drawn the face, which was little better than smiley-face quality, when L interrupted her and cried, "Mom, that looks fantastic!" H was proud of her drawing skills, but I was happier with her new and correct use of a big word. I guess she's the product of both of us.
