Grandma Edds wants to encourage the boy’s creativity. Coloring with crayons is the first logical step, and she loves helping them color their placemats at restaurants. Unfortunately, adults too often become so involved with work and other responsibilities that they don’t allow themselves the time for creative endeavors. I remember what a talented artist she was years ago when she was encouraging me to draw and paint. Maybe helping the boys will reawaken her artistic interests and lead to her own creative renaissance. Even if it doesn’t, the art lessons she gives her grandsons will likely bear enough “fruit” to cover her refrigerator for the next decade or so.
