go back and look at that post. Feel the pride and love regarding the beautiful watercolour that Mae did at school that week. Look at it closely and enjoy the passion and artistry that went into the painting.
Here is today's conversation , when Mae is getting her shoes on in front of said picture.
Mae: 'I really like that picture. But I didn't paint that one'
Jen: 'What?!?! Yes, you did! Mrs Foden put your name on it and said you did it that day!'
Mae: ' But I didn't paint it. My friends Olivia and Marina did it'
Jen: 'What....?'
Mae: 'Yeah, they did it and gave it to me then Mrs Foden put my name on it.'
Jen: '.....'
Mae: 'Every time I look at it I think of them- I love that picture.'
Every time I go into the hallway I look at that picture with pride, and warmth in my heart. I now realise that pride and warmth is for the twins, Olivia and Marina.

That is freakin' hilarious! Maybe you should give it to the twins' parents!! Or keep admiring it as the work of art you first thought it was!!
Jen, I was crying when I read that, I was laughing so hard. Why did she not think to mention that before????
Wow! How much did it cost to have the twins, painting framed so beautifully??? I think this'll be one of those posts I come back to now and again when I need a laugh.
