It's just a naked person! May 2007

At our elementary school in Texas the art teacher had a "Meet the Artist" gallery night for the entire school. Every student (about 800) decorated a poster-sized portfolio and placed all of the artwork they did throughout the year in it. Each grade's portfolios were displayed in different rooms throughout the school. Sydney took me to find hers. She loves art! Her drawings and projects were really well done. (Of course I might be a teeny bit biased).

Rick went off with Spencer to find his. As he walks in the room he notices a group of parents and kids at a table laughing at one of the portfolios. He said to himself, "please don't let that be Spencer's, please don't let that be Spencer's." Rick asked him to find his and Spencer made a beeline straight to it. Here is what he found:

We asked Spencer what was up with his drawing and he replied, "It's just a naked person!"

On the way out the art teacher was in the middle of a conversation with other parents. When her eyes met mine she immediately burst with, "I know, I know! I didn't catch it until right before it started! I thought of adding a fig leaf but ran out of time. "
