Love the arts! They are lucky to have a mom that inspires that creativity. Will you frame their paintings and hang in the house?

I love this book. When he gets hungry and buys paint with food names, is a favorite part of the book for me.

I don't frame them but I should take one and switch them out when they do a new one.
