Collaboration

One of the most fun things about having kids is tapping into their imagination, even if you just manage to scratch the surface you always get hold of these amazing little ideas. The other morning M came into bed and snuggled in. After about 10 minutes (when she had warmed up her feet on my back...eeek!) she asked, mum, does monsters loose their milk teeth too? (we have talked a bit about loosing teeth because most of her friends have started to loose theirs). Of course, I replied... how do you think they get those BIG ones? (pretended my fingers were teeth and gave her a good tickle). Then it got me thinking about a little monster doodle, and voila...this little guy was born. (M thought he looked like somebody who would have an imaginary friend, so we added that too.) It is school holidays now for 2 weeks, so there will be a lot of time to draw and be silly on... wonderful!!
