    I agree completely! Although, now that I think about it, my kid would probably still be in the testing room two years later! "OK, now we're at the knees. Let me tell you about knees. Oh, do you need to take another break?" laugh

    So true! This would be more of a test for the tester's patience. As it was, my daughter takes forever getting drawings "right".

    Lol! Yes, I've had plenty of very revealing drawings of myself, daddy, and ds9's sister. One I remember really laughing at was a picture of dd by ds where her face was just solid red. ( Well, she did (does) tend to get a bit hot around the collar. )
