exactly what crayons are for....

We took the tribe out to The Olive Garden recently. It is our usual set up, The kids are spaced out with Mommy & Daddy seated between them. EACH & EVERY restaurant wants to give them crayons with the kid menu BUT they never seem to know "the rules". That is using them to make a creation on the paper & NOT eating them! They think crayons are an appetizer! LOL!Well I was just amazed at how different they behaved this time. There they were actually coloring! I had to capture the moment & snapped a few pic's! Made me SO proud! I made Michael take a gander at how well they were sitting there coloring away! We did have a few moments where Avery wanted to EAT her menu & tempted herself with one crayon but that was short lived! Overall it was a great evening.Maybe this is the start of something! Should I go out & buy them a ton of art stuff? Crayons? Markers? No, I think I will just wait & see. For now I will just settle for what we already have at home. Now if they could just learn their colors! WOO HOO I think I'd be shedding a tear! I guess I am just amazed that they now know...
