What Do You Want To Do When You Grow Up?


“What do you want to do when you grow up?” they would ask her.
“Color!” she would say.
“You can’t!” they’d say. “Coloring isn’t a job, it’s a pastime!”

“You have to pick a job.” they’d say. “Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief.”
“Color!” she would reply.
 “But you CAN’T make a life out of coloring!” they’d say.

“COLOR!” she would shout.

“YOUCAN’T!” they’d say.
“CAN’T!”
“CAN’T!”
“CAN’T!”
“CAN’T!”
“CAN’T!”

 And she would lie on the floor filling book after book with her bright and vivid colors.

  4. She was one tough cookie. She knew what she wanted. Sounds like the opening of a children's (or adult) story......... and then she created all these wonderful critters...... Sweet drawing. Did you do that on the tablet?
