Eli's Art Work: Three Years Old

 Eli really enjoys watercolor pencils.  So do all of my children, as a matter of fact.  That's another worthwhile art investment.  Also, they love their fancy watercolor paper.  I don't mind buying that for them either--except for Emeline who goes through about 40 trees a day and that gets expensive with even the cheapest paper.
 This is my favorite piece Eli has ever done.  I thought it was a smiley face but Eli informed me that the proper title is: Slugs.  I'm so in love with it.

This last picture is to show you how I showcase the kids' art.  We bought the wire and hangers at IKEA and strung them up in the dining room.  I don't like having them in the dining room because it feels cluttered in there all the time and adding to that makes me a little insane.  On the flip side, there is really nowhere else to put them and I think it is important for my kids to have a spot to see their work.  Despite the logistics problems, I love the system itself.  Thanks Ikea, for your $10 solutions to life's little quandaries.
