Collin's Art - Family Members

While Mommy and Daddy were on a date at the movies, Mimi and Collin got to spend some quality time together.  It had been awhile so Collin was eager to play with his Mimi.  After an interesting dinner of tuna salad on crackers and marshmallows (yes, the kids still loves his marshmallows), he wanted to color.  He drew a picture of himself, Timmy, Mimi and Leah.  He made sure that he drew a smiling face for him because he was happy.  For Timmy, he first drew a non-happy face and then a smiling one because "he is happy to stand next to Collin and Mimi".  Leah was so small that she did not have much of a face but he was sure to include socks on her feet.  He explained to Mimi that she did not need shoes. 

Collin's people drawings are similar - round faces with legs coming below from the head.  The hair is either sticking straight up or curly.  No bodies are included so far.  There are arms coming out the side of the head and 2 fingers. All mouths are turned up at the edges.

To better explain how cute this art work really is, here are some pictures:

Here is the overall picture.  Starting  from left to right is Collin, Timmy, Mimi and Leah.  Collin does have blue hair and green ears.  I see a yellow color in there.  Maybe he was trying to color medium blonde hair?  His hair IS getting darker but I doubt this is what he was trying to do.

Here is Collin next to Timmy.  Gotta love the arms coming out of his head.  See how he is smiling because the "smile" does turn up at each corner.  He did also include the details of eyes and a nose.  Are those cheeks I see?  Timmy is next with his sad face and MUCH smaller than Collin.  This is how he sees Timmy...smaller than him but not a baby anymore because Leah is the baby.

Here is his Mimi.  Love that hair.  Is he trying to tell Mimi that she needs to brush it?  Haha...just kidding with you Mimi!  At least she has a big smile and, look, her arms are coming out of her legs and not her face.

This is the cutest baby Leah I have seen.  She is so tiny yet he still made sure to include the detail of her having socks on.  I think I see a pair of eyes in there too.
