Abraham's Art

Lately Abraham has been very interested in art. For a long time he didn't want to draw or color, but now he'll spend time every day drawing pictures. Here are a few of my favorites. He drew this first one at church. It was a picture of his lesson. He obviously got a few points wrong since it was supposed to be Jesus being baptized and the Holy Ghost descending as a dove, but I thought it wasn't too bad. I transcribed exactly what he told me. 
Here's the picture without the words blocking it:

This one is a race track. He named all his cars. 

 Again, here it is without the words. 
This one is a flower. Here's the story. He'd had kind of a grumpy day and I was pretty frustrated with him. I was in the kitchen getting dinner ready and he brought me this picture. He said he wanted to cheer me up and every time he picked me a flower it would die, so he wanted me to have a flower that would never die. Now how cute is that? It makes me super happy to see him interested in art and I really hope he gained his artistic abilities from his Father and not me!!

My kids would never play with toys, but always spend hours and hours coloring. It is a great pastime.

He melts my heart! He is so cute and so blasted smart! I love the art work. I especially love that he included a scorpion and a few starfish. Too cute!
