My little literalist


“I love to paint!”

Poppy told me that over and over again as she crafted her latest work: “Daddy and Some Green Stuff.”

The narrative as she applied the “Daddy” portion of the painting (that big, dark splotch on the left): “Poppy loves her daddy. He’s such a good daddy.”

Thankfully, she didn’t paint her face green this time. She did, however, just come out of the bathroom saying, “That’s OK! It’s just water!”

Oh dear.
