Nate's First Comic

While I was out, my four-year-old son made his first comic book. He made four pages of story and then ran around the house looking for tape to put it together. He even used speech balloons to show who was talking. He told me what was going on in the story, so I'll narrate the comic with his words.

1. Mary Jane is falling off a building. Spider-man is catching her with his webs.
2. Now Peter Parker is saying words to Mary Jane.
3. Mary Jane is falling off a building again. Spider-man says, "I saved you!" The "Green Glob-lin" is flying in the sky on his glider.

4. Now the Green Glob-lin is in jail. Peter Parker is there with Mary Jane.

Wales Art -- The Next Generation

Up until now, Nathan hasn't shown a lot of interest in drawing, and when he has, his work has been, shall we say -- nonobjective? Today, however, he drew the most adorable pair of self-portraits! We asked him who showed him how to do that and he said "Nobody" -- but he does watch daddy draw a lot.
