'wog! wabbit!
I have all these blog posts dancing about in my head, but I haven't the energy to sit down and write any of them. So instead of my deep thoughts, today you'll have to make due with a picture of Anya-the-artist at work (be honest, you'd rather see the cute pictures anyway, right?):
She's getting better at keeping the paint on the paper, instead of getting it, well, everywhere else. She painted a little blob and said to me, "Wog! Wog!" (translation: "Frog! Frog!"). Then she painted a big blob and said "Wabbit! Wabbit!" You can see in the photo that what she actually painted in no way resembles a frog or a rabbit, but she was so sure of herself, and so pleased with herself, too. It's interesting to me that her intentions were so clear. Then she stuck both hands in the paint bowl and announced, "Uh-oh, Mama. Mess!"

Great. One minute she's an opera singer, the next a tap dancer (loves Gene Kelly) and now a painter. Can't she be, like, something that makes MONEY so she can support her artsy-fartsy parents in their advancing years?!?
