We all like to think of our children as little artists - it just doesn’t help when they see practically every surface as a canvas.
Well, one Twitter user’s spouse saw some humour in their kid’s creativity.
Neurosurgeon and father Dr Eric Massicotte posted a photo to Twitter this Monday of his son’s whimsical drawing of a green house.
On their pristine white wall.
Rather than being angry, the doctor’s wife Kim framed the sketch and put a placard next to it, like you’d see in a gallery.
The piece is entitled ‘Interrupted House’, with the medium being marker on latex paint. The drawing was “Gifted to his parents, by surprise, on November 13th”.
Your kids are going to do things they shouldn’t. It helps if you married someone with a sense of humour. pic.twitter.com/VVTstejBJO

What a great way to celebrate creativity!
So far Eric’s post has over 235K likes and almost 90K retweets!
“In the future when he buys a house, you should definitely return the favour,” joked one Twitter user.
Another person shared a similar story, saying, “My college roommate kicked a hole in her parents’ living room wall demonstrating her karate kicks. They framed the hole and labelled it ‘Anna yellow belt’. Love this.”
We got a kick out of that!
It seems like the Massicotte home is one filled with hijinks! Kim posted this haunting creation their four-year-old made on Halloween:

Spooky! Let’s hope he sticks to his career as an artist.
What do you think of the Massicotte’s response, mums? What do you do when your kids draw on surfaces they shouldn’t?
