What kids say!

Saw this in San Francisco at the De Young Museum this week, Renoir, Boy with Cat.
Next to me, mom says to her little girl, "Oh Kristin, look at this painting, it has a cat. I bet it's your favorite?" Little girl said, "I'd like it better if he had his underwear on."

Renoir said it well!

"One must from time to time attempt things that are beyond one's capacity."
Auguste Renoir, French, 1841-1919
This is why teachers are so wonderful, everyday they are coaxing children to go out on that limb. (Some of us need to coax ourselves too. Yes, that would be me!)
