Artist-in-training

Neither Gretchen nor I have an artistic bone in our bodies (although Gretchen is at least gifted musically), but Mädchen seems to like to draw and paint, so maybe she picked up a recessive artistic gene somewhere. I've started taking her to an art class for toddlers, and while she seems to prefer dipping paint brushes in water rather than in paint, at least there's a chance that her right brain might develop better than either of ours did...
