« I'll be here | Main | blogging about blogging »
So, tonight is my monthly date night with Monk, and my friend John has invited us to his house to play games on his x-box. Monk is so thrilled, he can barely contain himself. Last night, he confided in me, quite earnestly.
He said: Mom...I want you to know that I'm mainly going to be concentrating on John tonight...I MIGHT have a conversation with you every ONCE in awhile, but mostly I'm going to be hanging out with John.
Isn't that cute?
His papa gave him a marker pen last night, and he's DRAWING. I'm so thrilled. I've been so distraught over the fact that he never draws, feeling like there's something strange about a little boy who doesn't like to draw....but there he is right now, going to town with his little tongue sticking out as he concentrates, drawing these little picture stories. A pirate ship, an alien, and a diving board and swimming pool that are closed. YAY! I'm running right out to the store today and buying a million of these "Bic Grip Permanent" pens, as they are the only pen Monk will draw with...or so he claims.
So, here he is, drawing up a storm. And it's so awesome. And we're both totally looking forward to tonight...

Plastic pens! Whatever would the Waldorfians say?
My son used to never draw, it had me worried. His sister who is 2 years younger was drawing, and sometimes if asked to draw, he would just scribble.
One day he had a prfound thought during an arguement with an athiest, and he drew for the first time i his life.
See, my dear boy was asking God to make it sunny, the athiest toldhim "I don't believe in God,and I think it's going to rain tomorrow" and Nic drew a picture of a cloud raining on a man and nowhere else and said "I'm going to pray it rains just on you"
