I Can Only Imagine
My husband and I both pondered this picture that our 5 year old drew over Thanksgiving. His artistic details and drawings are definitely improving, but this one had us puzzled. Honestly, doesn’t it look like sperm?
He explained it to us in a long drawn out ramble, but it’s nothing like we had imagined.
I’m interested in your guesses. The first person to guess correctly (leave a comment about what the circles with the line attached are) wins a $10 Starbucks gift card. I’ll leave it open until someone guesses correctly and I’ll let you know when you get it right.
Good luck!
If you are looking for another contest to enter, head over to Props & Pans. We’re giving away a kickTrak counter from Babykick! It is a really cool little device that Canape reviewed.
My name is Emily. I’m 30 years old. I have often been told that I ask a lot of questions, but I think I have more to say than ask.
I think they’re balloons. It’s a windy day and they’re everywhere.

remember to call your gram
I’ll go first.
It’s the three of you (duh) releasing a bunch of helium filled balloons into the sky, like what one might see during the Macy’s parade, or halftime at a football game.
I was going to say balloons! So I’ll go with baseball hats since they are also on the heads of the people. I’m probably WAY OFF
floating lollipops.
the main thing is the smiles on all of your faces!
well, I was going to say balloons too, but obviously that must not be it… guess I’ll go with dandelions? You’re blowing them away?
Never in a million years would I have thought of sperm!!!
well darn…my first thought was balloons. That was taken by poster #1…and #2.
Then I was going to say suckers. But #4 beat me to it.
I give up….
You guys are pretty good!! Keep guessing. I guess you can guess as many times as you want.
Seriously Krista…you didn’t think it looked a little like spermies? Even after I mentioned it? My husband and I bursted out laughing at first glance because we both thought the exact same thing! Maybe we have dirty minds?
Well, going by my own children’s drawing talents, I totally thought they’d be balloons (although, yes, they definitely also resemble sperm). Since that is apparently not what your kid had in mind, I’m going with aliens flying to their mothership;>
balls? Throwing balls in the air?
OK, maybe I thought balls, bc my first guess was sperm!
I’m classy like that!
I’m going to say that it’s leaves. They’re falling from the sky or the trees and some are landing on the ground around them. The leaves have stems. One of them even has little veins, like leaves would have.
Raindrops?
I think the leaf guess was good too.
They do look like sperm…
Happiness, little idea blurbs full of happiness. That must be it…I mean the people have such large smiles on their faces. I’m going with happiness.
It’s your family watching a parade, and those circles are obviously other people. The reason I know that is because when I try to draw people, I make a circle and a stick and that’s pretty much it.
My first thought was definetly sperm, too funny!
I see the sperm likeness but I’m going with clouds or rays of sunshine?
I thought that they were lollipops. But, that’s cause my son is slightly obsessed with lollipops.
That, or he has a premonition that you’re having litter of children with all of that sperm
um, dreams or birds, or um…snot?
My boys think it is love (??????????)
We have a winner!!! I’ll tell you who tonight…..
ok, so ill go for either balloons or lollipops…
i’m not looking above until I get this comment down…I thought balloons.
[…] very impressed that it only took 9 guesses to figure out what our son drew. Assertagirl won! It was leaves falling down from the sky as we went on a walk in the wood a few […]
Sperm. *snicker*
Um, I mean, cute leaves.
arg! i can’t believe i missed this. i’m a sucker for a contest! i think i would have guessed balloons, though.
My first thought was balloons either but I don’t know…I think it is something coming FROM the sky…not sure why that is lol
