A first

Mim loves to color.  I usually break out the coloring book and crayons at least once a day.  I thought I was being really smart, only giving her 2 or 3 crayons at a time- so she wouldn't be able to secret any away and surprise me with murals like this.  Turns out, I need to pay more attention when I know she actually has crayons.  She was laying on the floor in the living room, coloring in her book, while I watched a show and folded laundry.  I was really into it, I guess.  I looked over and the coloring book was still there, but Mim and crayons were gone.  I was lucky, I suppose, that it was only in one little spot in her bedroom and not all down the halls and everywhere.  I just laughed when I saw- it was totally my own fault.
Here she is beside her handiwork:
  It's hard to see, but it's on the wall by her stacking cup she's holding.

Ah, ma petite artiste.
