THIS is my present from Connor for my first Mother's Day. This picture was done entirely by Connor. Matt bought some finger paints and let Connor plop his hands down in the colors he wanted (or really the one closest to his hand). Then Matt held him up over the paper and let him move his hands where ever he wanted. The red portion in the top right was the first one he did. Matt said he was mildly interested until the paper was turned and he used the green on one hand and the red on the other. Then he started realizing that the colors on the paper were following his hands. After a while, Matt rinsed him off and put his hands in the blue and yellow. Apparently, he was very interested in this because he even ended up mixing the colors, creating his own shade of green. This is by far, the best Mother's Day present (other than Connor himself, of course.)

....and following family tradition, no doubt one day, he'll lean against the wall where it's hanging and, with a look of smug self-satisfaction, declare to anyone willing to listen, "I painted that".... followed shortly thereafter by, "I wrote that...", "I sang that...." and "I cooked that...".
