My Artist

I've always considered myself crafty and the "artist" of the family (which isn't very hard to accomplish in my family). I even took a little pride in my skills. And then one day I met Eric. We would go to Color Me Mine, and his project would always look better than mine. I eventually forced Eric to do projects WITH me so I wouldn't get jealous of his work and hate my own.

For example: This is the very first painting Eric has EVER done. Amazing right?!!

He is definitely a very talented boy! He painted this while he was on his mission and is now being rewarded for his work 4 years later because WE FINALLY GOT IT FRAMED!! And for anyone who visits us, we will have to tell you a funny little story about the date on this painting :)

I'm so glad I no longer have to look at this rolled up on the floor thinking about how it needs to be framed. And most of all, I'm really glad Eric doesn't suck at painting or else I wouldn't want it hanging up in my house. THANK YOU FOR BEING AMAZING, ERIC!

It looks so great framed. Thanks Cindy for doing that. It should have been done a couple years ago. Good thing he has you! Eric, you have some talent. Good job bud-
