Chalk Artist

 
Way back in the day, PaPa used to tell my BFF Lisa and I that we needed rain. I may have told this story before. We'd dutifully get out our sidewalk chalk, decorate as much of his front walk as we could, and then wait. Sure enough, within three days it'd rain.
 
 
We dug our sidewalk chalk out of the toy bin and got colorful. The driveway was covered in rainbows, hopscotch, numbers, flowers, suns, clouds, and everything else you can think of in no time. Damon even modeled this rainbow (below) after the one I did (above) with no prompting.


 
And yes, every chalk artist worth his salt does his best work while wearing pajamas, right?
 
For those keeping track, yes, it rained within three days.
