Gallery Time

April 3rd, 2008

Today I tried an experiment.

I spontaneously took the kids to an Art Gallery to see what piece of art they liked the most.

We all survived and so did the gallery.

I gave the children instructions on how to behave and that they should not run, or shout. The woman briefly scanned us as we entered.

Hudson liked a textured piece painted with a knife. He was desperate to touch this very expensive piece of art sitting right at his level. I practically had his hand in a vice grip to which he was non to pleased. Chloe liked the bright bold pieces, very modern, of flowers. Probably because it had hot pink and flowers in them. Honestly, it was my favorite piece too. And Jackson didn’t really have a favorite he liked them all, which to me, was code for, I am not very “in” to this Mom but I will humor you because I can see this is terribly important to you.

So, for the first time….we did OK. It was only about 8 minutes, but we did it and plan to do it again.
