Age 5

Kindergarten

This isn't my artwork, but I wanted to include it here. This is the list they gave me of what I should draw for the Family and Medical Leave project.

The cute note they gave me after I was finished with my drawings! I also got to go to the meeting where they presented the final report!

This is a handmade card from one of the people at my Dad's work, I think it was Ana but I don't remember.

The final report. I didn't do the design but I did the drawings. I won't list it like one of my other pieces because it was definitely a collab!

"I love you and you love me" and the bird is saying "Tuete."

Eventually I found out that my Dad had asked me to draw all of these things because he was including them in something he was working on for a report. It was meant to show the importance of having medical leave when you need it. I think it was a really smart idea.

This character I drew often. They were named "Mr. Heart" and I don't think the Mr. had anything to do with gender. Neither did the eyelashes. This heart was just an absolute Sir.

"My cat Poosh Poosh." This was also my grandparents' cat. When I was a baby I was upset by cats, but eventually I became more comfortable and started to love cats!
