When picking up my little buddy a few days back, I was greeted with a smile and an urgent request. This was a little look into our conversation:
Him: ( running out of the classroom and grabbing my hand) Gemma! We meed to make a sign! (that’s not a typ0. He meeeeeeds to! He’s four remember.)
Me: (taking his hand and smiling – he does that to me) Hi, Gemma!
Him: (with a slight frown and then the light goes on) Hi, Gemma! We meeeeeeed to make a sign!
Me: OK. Sounds like a plan. What kind of sign?
Him: A No Dinosaurs sign. I meed it to keep va dinosaurs out of my room!
Me: (still smiling) Well why would that be? Are there dinosaurs trying to get into your room?
Him: No. But I meed to make sure vat vat doesn’t happen!
So, we made our way home and made a No Dinosaurs sign.

A “NO DINOSAURS” SIGN
I did the dino using google to guide me of course. My little friend added the red touches, which he informs me makes it the No Dinosaurs sign.
My husband says, “And you get paid to do this!” And my response is, “Yes. And I love every minute.”
Lisa, at Zeebra Designs & Destinations is asking us to stop, for just a little while this busy time of year, and be creative. Make yourself a priority and Take some Time Out for Art. It’ll soothe the soul. 🙂

No way, baby! I’ll leave this to those who can 🙂
What must it be like to be 4? You have a lovely life with them, Gem.
Yes I do. They are adorable and awesome. (They even have cups that say so.)

I was smiling right along with you.

Thank you. 🙂
Your post certainly eased mine!
Haha! Then it works for both of us. 😉
Enjoy the trek along the holiday season path, Kathryn. xxx
So fun! Next time we have breakfast, I meed to make a No Spiders sign for my house. And a No Stinkbugs sign for my porch. And a No Bills sign for my mailbox.
Yeah, really! Let’s get on it! 😉
We meed to have breakfast soon, before we are overrun with undesirables.
He can work for the signage department for the city.
Haha! He would have that place hoppin’. He’s no slouch. 😉
Tell your little friend from me that his sign is perfect. It is sure to keep dinosaurs away 🙂
Will do, Colline. 😉
What a cute dinosaur sign. Methinks it looks way too friendly to scare off any animal. YOu did great though, and I love the red touches. It really meeded them. 🙂
LOL!

This gives me a mad urge to color with crayons! But I don’t have any dinosaurs. 🙂 He is adorable.
Haha. Thanks, Angelia. Go ahead and give it a try. No Anything! 😉
That is adorable. Love the dinosaur drawing too. It does show the magical world of childhood and all the fun stuff that goes with it. Happy Holidays my friend.
