Crossbones Valentine

I found this little watercolor painting lying around in the house this weekend. While I was scanning it Ike came up and told me he painted it. Then Zoë appeared, crying that she had painted a heart and Ike ruined it with all the “Halloween stuff.”

Ike did not deny it but agreed, saying, “I put in the bones and the scary parts.” Zoë harumphed and stomped off. I don’t like to side with one kid or the other, but the Halloween parts are really the most amazing thing. It’s pretty great blown up, too. We might print it and frame it.
