Freudian Art Analysis

One day a week I teach a Human Development class at a local college.  My mom (Cat Cat) keeps the boys while I'm teaching.  Yesterday my class was discussing the different theorists:  Piaget, Erikson, and of course Freud.  So here I've been talking about their developmental stages all morning and I come home to find this art project my mom has made with Pierce:

Hmmmmm. 

I think they're supposed to be mouse ears. 

What do you think Freud would say?



Too bad Freud isn't around to ask.
Or maybe it isn't so bad after all.
Because I'm pretty sure he would call my son a boob-head.
Maybe I need a new sitter...

Don't forget to stop by tomorrow for Memory Lane Friday - topic this week is a family vacation.

The ears go on the BACK of Ralph Mouse's head. Freud would have a field day with you. Any normal person would know those are mouse ears, especially on a kid who has his nose painted pink with whiskers on each side.

Umm, in that first photo I so thought they looked like testes. But that's me...
