Little Boys have been scaring little girls forever....same goes for little boy ghosts and little girl ghosts. As I thought about this weeks topic I kept remembering the time I took my youngest son to find a mask for Halloween. It was just the two of us. He was in about 4th grade and into that age where he wanted to look scarey instead of wearing a cute costume....Do you know the age I am talking about? Scarey then wasn't like scarey now.... I did the "tsk tsk" motherly thing but he picked a green faced alien with lime green hair on it....He loved it!!!!!!!!! He ran out of the car to show the rest of the family...(By now it had gotten dark outside) and his little sister threw open the front door to greet us........oh my........It wasn't pretty! I didn't expect her to open the door to see him standing there in his mask! She didn't expect to see this thing....He didn't expect to scare her...I don't think so.......anyway.........as quickly as she opened the door she began to scream and in that very instant she slammed the door shut and continued to scream.....I got out of the car.....her dad jumped out of his recliner to see what she was screaming at.......Ben tore off the mask......anyway it was not at all what anyone expected! So that is what made me think of doing this illustration for this week. That's my story and I'm Sticking to it!
that isa really sweet story and a really great drawing..i love the blue shading and the pink shading..
