Fatherhood²: Another First – The Self Portrait!

Posted on September 17, 2012January 7, 2018 by Henry Elliss

This post won’t be a long one, but it’ll certainly be a proud one. For today, Robert drew (what we think is) his very first self-portrait! Drawn at school today, and very proudly presented to Mummy as she found it in his book bag, Robert was VERY pleased that Sara chose to hang it on our magnetic notice-board – so hopefully he’ll be even more pleased that it has ended up on my blog (or as he will understand it: “On the computer!”)

Here it is, hanging proudly on our wall. Feel free to leave your critiques for him in the comments below! : )

    Love it. Especially like the arms, or maybe arms come computer chip connectors. Some of daddy in there perhaps?

One good thing to come from this week’s rail strikes (and the subsequent week WFH) was my daily sunrise walks - something I really miss when I have to go into London. Fingers crossed that 2023 allows for a few more of them.
