More Canon ..sorry Ty

Okay, I must purpose to enter three entries in a row only about Ty in order to off-set my influx of Canon-dedicated posts :)

But, for now I must share that this kid is some kind of genius.

I remember not even thinking to offer Ty a crayon or marker until he was at least a bit older than Canon. Because he is the second kid, of course he got exposed to this stuff much sooner than his brother (again, sorry Ty. I hope I didnt spelch some kind of art genius in you) ..and he loves it!

His #1 favorite activity is coloring. He loves it.

What is funny is that he so meticulous about it. He draws, and has for about 6 months, tiny circles all over his page.

We were amazed at him this week when his Grandma and Grandpa Steed were here, and were showing him how to make pictures out of his circles. We would say, "draw a BIG circle here" ..he would. "Then draw two little circles here..." He would. "Then, draw a line here...look you made a happy face!"

He looked at that, and determined we were all bonkers, and added another circle, and said "nose!"  ..okay. sorry, our mistake.

This week, he also started drawing things and telling us what they were. Amazingly, they often resembled what he was talking about: pig, fish, a "C" . The only thing we werent sure about was when he drew a lopsided circle and said with words and backed it up with gestures, "pants!" 

While I will ever strive to not wish away these precious moments, I cant wait to see what these boys will do in the future :)
