Mireya Picasso Wallo

Mireya loves to color. Every morning after she eats breakfast, I take her into her room to get dressed for the day. While I'm getting her out of her pajamas and into her day clothes, she's getting out all her coloring books and her pail of crayons. She generally colors for 10 minutes or so before moving on to other things. One day, I had to do something really quickly, so against my better judgment I left her alone with the crayons. I got back to her maybe 2 minutes later, no big deal right? Wrong. The first thing I noticed were the shredded coloring books, then I saw that when she grinned at me her teeth were all different colors. (She had clearly needed a morning snack of Crayola.) The next thing I saw was the wall. Mireya had scribbled all over a small section of it. She was very proud of it and eager to show me. It wasn't much, but ever since she realized that the crayons write on more than just her coloring books, I have to watch her very closely. She has now tried them on everything from the walls, to her clothing, to Daddy's face. Good news folks! Crayola crayons work on everything!
