What a weeks it’s been! The E-man has been battling an ear infection and the resulting diaper rash, and I’ve fallen ill with a chest cold and an ear infection myself! I haven’t had one of those in many years. That’s what happens when you send your child to the Giant Germ Incubator sometimes known as daycare! I think I’m on the downward slope, and I know the E-man is, so in a few days all will return to normal.
When we picked up the E-man from the Giant Germ Incubator daycare today, we saw a little piece of artwork had been put into his cubby to be brought home. It was made from pudding and green jello, and apparently he really got into it. It’s his first painting, one of many to follow! I took a picture of it and wanted to share it with you, at least before the ants find it and take it away. By the way, reproductions are available from the E-Man Collection (for an outrageous fee, of course - we have to pay for college somehow). And here, for the very first time, an original E-man:

Artistic ability does run in our side of the family -
Interesting that E’s artistic inspiration seems to be visually drawn from boogers - could this be his father’s cultural inflence manifested in his artistic expressionism?

Very Jackson Pollack of him.
