    I wear mismatching socks on purpose to see how long (or if) it takes someone to say something.

    It's because they love you and want yo to be a success. And pay attention to them.

    Becky Barnicoat has always loved drawing and started creating cartoons when she was young. Becky even did a school project in comic book form about her future career, but her teachers didn’t appreciate it and gave her a low grade. She thinks many people don’t understand that cartoons can be serious art. “I wish I could have shown them Maus so they could see how wrong they were, but I didn’t know it existed back then."

    But never make it a competition - just acknowledge that your friends are tired too. Friends are open about these things.

    Becky gets her inspiration from people and their faces. She enjoys drawing faces and caricatures, especially those that have unique or odd features. She recalls drawing a caricature of one of her teachers who looked a bit like a guinea pig. Even though the teacher wasn’t one of the bad ones, she felt awful when the teacher saw the drawing and was hurt by it. "I love weird faces so much and sometimes I see people on the street and their faces are just bizarre. The odder the shape the better it is."

    I like it, but in my life none of those pieces fit this precisely together :)

    When it comes to her art, Becky mostly draws from her imagination. She finds it fun to create different faces without needing references. She mainly uses pen and ink for her drawings and enjoys experimenting with other mediums like watercolors.

    ... and you also know that he's going to get his clothes wet and you'll have to get out and find dry ones for him. And then bathe him later tonight. You're responsible but he's in charge.

    The times you'll remember as your best, are also the times you were within a grain of rice of losing it. But you (just) held it all together. Only just, but you did it

    Two words they shouldn't teach in kindergarten - "Wanna" and "no". It can only end in tears

    There's 'romantic' - and then there's 'realistic possibility of actually happening'. They do not inhabit the same universe

    Kids are different from you and me - they 'know' that someone will make it all good for them. And you're that someone

    My friend's dad got so tired of his three kids drawing on the walls that he painted over it with chalkboard paint and gave them a bucket of chalk. Lol

    Extra points for that toilet thing if you're female and you have a son; triple points if you're male and you have a daughter. There Is No Right Answer
