I lied because of BABYSITTING.

So family and all, I babysit alot. Non-stopishly, it feels like, some days. But just when the hooligans are being hellions. Oh, and that's why I haven't posted the pics (that I've taken--that are ON MY COMPUTER RIGHT NOW--of my doodles. I frustrate myself, though, endlessly.) Nieces and Nephews.

So, I'm awake at five in the morning (before that actually, but it's a little after five a.m. when I'm posting this, my time) because caffeine and trying to sleep equals nightmares. Even after a lovely evening of rainstorms and sisterly bonding (game shows were watched and fingernails were painted), my brain conjures up my worst fears about my future. So I'm up and awake and not sleeping~

I'm posting this (almost titling it 'My Oldest Niece is the BEST') because I found a BOOK that my 6-year-old-niece MADE. "fun ativetes and creasons" (Fun Activities and Creations), which I am not going to share with you guys because it's that adorable and I just can't help myself.

Pg. 1: She drew a picture of a FLAMINGO (seriously her first choice of bird for the day)...out of circles. 11 circles and a three-feathered wing.

Pg. 2: "this is a circle radio." ...and she drew a radio wih circles. ...even inclued circle-music notes, the antannae, and the handle to carry the portable radio by. (I love this child!!)

Pg. 3: ((I'm going to take a moment that she's adopted this .... cardboard...thing... that came out of a board game me and my friends played the day before. That piece that people usually throw away because you've popped all the player disc/coins/markers out of it? Yeah, she's utilizing that thing on this page--the others are free-handed.))
She's drawn a 'bee hive' (half a page of stenciled cirlces all askew and out of line, on-purpos. And up at the top there's this TINY bee ((I'mma beee~)) drawn in free-hand-circles.
Caption: "Bees are very Dangerous! they can sting you and me." ((I'm keeping the spelling/punctuation exactly how she wrote it because it's CUTE, dammit!))

Pg. 4: *Detailed picture of a fish...tied to a rock, I think. A rock with a starfish on it. With seaweed.*
Caption: "I saw this on tV!"

THE END.

And she left it for me to find on my bookshelf. "Because you really like books!" she said.

This kid...you guys...
