I have three sons, and they are as different from each other as night and day. Keeps me on my toes.

How hilarious is it that when asked to draw a picture of his house, Mike draws a floorplan?

The answer is, of course, it is very freaking hilarious. Well. To me at least.

I get the kitchen and bedroom, but what is the room to the top-right? It looks like he drew a rocket at the door way.

I love, LOVE! childrens’ drawings! This is definitely a keeper.

My oldest is in therapy. He had to draw a picture and then tell the therapist about it. He hands her a picture of a house. She says, “So, is this your house?” He says, “No, of course not… Can’t you see the 60′s architecture?”

My husband and I about fell over laughing. We have no idea where this came from, except that my husband draws for a living.

Oh, gosh, that reminds me of when my daughter was 4. She said, “I’m going to draw a map of the way you go to work” (which was also her day care, so she rode with me). She did it. Accurately enough that I recognized every landmark and street. She and your son would be kindred spirits — if she were still 4. She’s 20 now. :)

An interior designer or construction manager is also a distinct possibility. That’s a pretty clever kid you got there.

That is so great. My kid is obsessed with drawing our house, but never a floorplan, too cool.

That is funny! When my oldest was in Preschool they had them paint kites and then asked them if you were a kite where would you fly so they could write it down. My daughter without missing a beat looked at the teacher like she was crazy and said “To an airport.” :| Hehe. Kids.
