Ruben's Wall


It's amazing really. I've lived with Ruben for 4 years and yesterday was the first time he's drawn on the wall. I was on the phone. I had a moments hesitation once I saw; to stop him, to be mother. But then, oh bugger it, why not? I enjoyed watching him scrawl huge circles, using his whole arm, his whole body. Quite a frenzy. Then I asked to join in and I drew around him.
"This is Ruben's wall"
" Ok... But the others are mine, right?"
Sometimes I'm so juvenile.

Alix, let him draw in the wall. At least his bedroom wall :)
Who knows, maybe he will become an artist one day!
