Armed with inspiration from my friend Sam and his love for body paint, I decided to give it a try this afternoon. I began by painting "my blood". I have been looking at lots of books about the human body lately and am fascinated by veins, arteries, bones, ect.....
Then I decided to paint my heart (no explanation as to why I chose black).....
Still painting my heart....
What can I say.... I have a big heart!
Megs happily watched me making a mess!
It hadn't occurred to me that I might be allowed to paint my face. Once mommy suggested it I cautiously placed the brush on my forehead....
How do I look?
Concentrating on painting my fingers....
Megs decided she would chew on one of the clean paint brushes while continuing to quietly watch...
I couldn't neglect the toes....
At this point I caught a glimpse of my face in the reflection of the glass on the back door and decided I was a warrior....
After a little more paint....
I ran around the yard yelling and doing the "warrior dance". I even climbed inside of the swimming pool to paint the bottom of it and make it fit for a warrior to swim in!
Then it was time to get cleaned up with a bath in the pool.....
Can we do this again tomorrow?
