Artistic sensibilities

This evening just before dinner, Esther and our neighbour girl who is 5 came into the house looking sheepish. The little girl said she wanted to go home now - that doesn't happen - she would always stay until I said it was time to leave. Turns out they had been getting a bit artistic on the trampoline. I usually let them take crayons, pencils and paper out there to do some colouring on the trampoline. Today they coloured the trampoline. Tomorrow they will be washing the trampoline. It was actually pretty hilarious and I'd give them 10/10 for creativity, just not common sense. You could tell they knew they had done something bad. I wish I could find my camera before it gets washed off, I've not idea where it's disappeared to. The 5 year old told her mum Esther had done it and she hadn't done any but there is some pretty fancy artwork that my 3 year old couldn't take credit for and some slightly less fancy artwork that she could. A regular pair of Picassos!!
