For the love of art...

Anderson and Adeline have been really, really, really into coloring and art projects for the past few months.  Art, drawing, and writing are things that did not interest Anderson before the age of 4 but he is loving it now.  Almost every day he asks if we can do a "project" or if I can "print off coloring pages for _____ (some upcoming holiday or event)".  He has asked to have an "art show" in the evening and wants to invite grandparents and neighbors to come over and look at his art.  He said he would make hot dogs and hamburgers for everyone to eat and wanted to sell his art.  Our little entrepreneur!  I think he's starting to clue into the fact that his mom is not the most crafty of moms.  Poor kid!  Adeline, at 18 months, has the attention and focus for coloring and drawing that must be ingrained in girls.  Or maybe it's her obsession with doing anything and everything her brother is doing.  Either way...the girl loves to color and will stay with it for as long as her big brother.  Here's a cute video of the two of them coloring together.  Notice Anderson critiquing my coloring ability...rascal.  Enjoy!
