Artistic expression in a toddler

Our family loves taking pictures.  Ever since I was little, I've always enjoyed taking what was in my brain and splattering it on paper, sculpting it with clay, creating a miniature model, or taking pictures of the beauty I see.  I guess that's why I enjoy this blog so much.  I find pictures that explain a lot about our life.  It's another creative outlet that helps me appreciate and reflect on my life.  

Anyhow, while taking pictures for the blog, #1 asked if I would take this picture... 
I wonder if she is going to love artistic expression like I do.  Her imagination could certainly support it.  She has already made a sample wedding dress, and her newest thing is to scrape crayons with her fingernails and display them on a piece of white paper.  She calls it color snow.  


As I sit here looking at her work of art above, I am thinking about the perfect place to display if it were in a frame.  The front hall has a lot of empty wall space, so maybe that will be our creation wall.  It would surely make her proud!  :o) 


Now I want to go brush something...  :o)
