Fear or Be Feared...This is the Question.

Last Sunday, Ben and I were hanging out in the kitchen while the kids played. Ali had the doodle pad out and was drawing pictures.

Ali came up to Ben and said, "I will draw your picture, Uncle Ben!" Ben wasn't exactly sure what to think of this and figured it probably wasn't a good thing. He said Ali would probably draw a picture of him dead or mamed. We had a good laugh over this and moved on.

When Ali completed her masterpiece, she brought it back in to me and showed me...

...I showed it to Ben...


..he looks dead to me!


What do you think?


I had to include the pictures of Jack. There is a funny story behind them as well.

When I saw the picture Ali had drawn, I thought it was so funny I had to get pictures of it to save, for posterities sake! As soon as I said, "Say Cheese!" Jack, who was standing a good ten feet behind me, came at a dead run - and stopped right in front of the camera. He plopped himself about a foot in front of my lens and said, "EESE!"

It was too funny! Needless to say, I had to get a few good pictures in, after all, he was being such a good boy!

Anyhow, I just couldn't help sharing these stories because how often do you get TWO hilarious episodes in ONE day, actually it was all within about 15 minutes! Priceless!

Your child seems a bit morbid...and that doesn't sound like it was a new thing, especially if Ben could guess that he would be either dead or maimed. Good luck with that one :)

And I love the ham!
