Day in the life of being a Parent to a Toddler...

General
Working on two special Series drawings... Zodiac MLP and Chinese Zodiac Chibis...
I leave my drawing pad alone just for 2 minutes.. to take a break and work on the computer..
my almost 2 year old, brings me HER... note HER drawing pad, asking if she can draw/color (she has to ask because we keep control of her crayons.. other wise we step on them and the chihuahua eats them)... I tell her yes, and give her her bag of crayons...
I turn around a minute later to check on her progress...
now keep in mind.. for a "non talking" 22 month old child, she has very good non verbal communication skills, understands what she's allowed and not allowed to touch or have, including but not limited to, books magazines, computers.. etc.. Every so often she tests the boundaries by Trying to color in say, one of HER books, or a magazine we were finished in and dubbed "Hers".. we still don't let her color in them even though they're hers just so she won't ever be confused...
I look behind me.. and see MY drawing pad... moved to her table... and my drawings that i've been working on the last few days... Scribbled on....... *heart attack*
Sadly i WAS going to finish them traditionally (besides digitally) and Sell the originals.. but now I can't........
Now a few hours later, after moving everything to safety, Scolding my daughter (which prompted her first to pout, and whimper cuz she was being scolded by an angry mommy.. then grab a piece of drawing paper, a crayon and run off to her room to shut the door with her and the dog inside) I got around to Scanning some of the images into my computer So I can begin digitally coloring them... only to find.. she also Killed 2 other pages of drawings.. aka 3 total.. *sigh*
just one of those days... lol,,, guess those images will only ever be digitally colored and finished *sad wolfie face*
