Dinosaur VS Optimash Prime and Darth Tater

This one was drawn by my 6 year old Son.  He asked me if he could do one, and I would be a horrible horrible Mother if I did not encourage him.  I love it.  When he was done, he said that he wasn't as good as me, and that if I had done it, I would have done it better.  I took a moment to praise him for what he did.  He asked if I was going to redo it to make it better, and I told him NO!  That I loved what he did, and this was ALL him, I didn't even help.  We talked about working at our talents, and letting them evolve from within us.  I made sure to let him know that I am not perfect, and that at one point I started out like he did.  He was, after all very proud of his work, and I let him know that I was proud of him.
   He set it all up using his toys- Darth Tater and Optimash Prime (potato heads).  Optimash is kind of camouflaged in the background, but you can make him out once you see him.  Seriously, how cute is this!?!!
