Niall’s drawing

I picked up Niall today.  He saw me and, as usual on the days I pick him up, shouted “Daddy!”, and came running over.  After a hug, he went to his cubbyhole and gave me a big piece of paper.

N:  I was thinking about you today so I drew a picture of you and me together.

J:  Who’s face is that at the top?

N:  That’s you!

J:  What’s that at the bottom?

N:  Those are your legs.  (Looks in the middle, and gets pained expression:)  I forgot to draw your awams.

J:  Oh, that’s fine, Niall!  It’s a beautiful picture!

N:  (Handing me the small one:)  And here’s me!

    Very cute.

    Somewhat disturbingly, these pictures work equally well as portraits of Jaimee and me.
