True story: I thought it would be a great idea for us to paint pottery at one of those craft shops one year. I figured some of it would make nice gifts for Christmas. In particular, I wanted something unique for Sierra's godmother. I found a clay plate that I painted a simple angel onto. Just a circle head with halo and a triangle body. Then we would have Sierra (then 1 or 2 years) put hand prints on either side for wings. What kid doesn't like sticking their hands in paint?
Apparently, my kid doesn't.
After the screaming fit we decided to leave and go to a restaurant nearby, hoping she would calm down before the shop closed. After she ate, we returned to the pottery shop. The best we managed were two fist prints. And this from the child who would eventually decorate my wall when she was five (I dug the picture out of my archives for your amusement)...

I'm sitting in front of some art deco work Bubbles did on the wall under the white board. ;-)
Finally got back to blogging; my new laptop is behaving today so I am making the rounds. This strip was a riot. lol. Did you give me the plate? Can't remember where it is? Uh Oh Love, Grandma
No mom. Godmother, not grandmother! I don't know if you ever had a chance to see it. Ask Kathy next time you see her!
