When we moved into our current house almost a decade ago I let one wall of our living room turn into a drawing wall. The kids were free to cover it in scribbles. At the time it was fun.
Now with a move looming I'm now having to clean all the marker and crayon residue off the walls so we can paint and it's a much sadder process then I thought it would be.
One of my most favourite works of art was on that wall. Here it is:
Catherine did it when she was 5 or 6.
I nearly cried as I scrubbed Spongebob off the wall.
