Draw, draw, DRAW! When ever Melody has time, she would either be playing on the Nintendo DS (I HATE Nintendoes) or drawing! First, she can only draw weird things that look like blobs of jelly. Then, she can draw people that look like ants to me. Then, she can draw sharks eating fish. THEN, she can draw what looks like our cats, and maybe some foxes are in her picture. After all this, I don't see or regonize any new figures when she draws. But too much of a good thing IS a bad thing. I'm very proud of her talent. On the other hand, I'm also a little worried. Mel usually draws on white paper. But now she has started to draw on MY pictures (even my best works) and on paper that simply aren't for drawing! Oh, well, she is still a very good artist for someone her age. I'm not surprised when mom admires it like a fine piece of art. I like her drawings too, actually. :)

I like and appreciate your attitude even when Mel messed up your work.

I think it is also ok for you to be concerned about her intention to draw on top of your work. This has nothing to do with your appreciation for her work. You have rights to your work, even Picasso should not draw on it, unless he is invited to.
That is called artists' respect for each other.
Dear Hannah,
I also think you are smart enough to solve your concern in many positive ways, for example:
1. If you catch Mel is messing up your work, tell her not to do that again, calmly and friendly;
2.Don't you think you should put your important work away when you're leaving the office? Thus, Mel can't reach them and your works are much safer.
You may think the words from mom are not so fuzzy, cuddly, understandable. But honey, a tough way can make you grow stronger.
Love,
Mom
