Mad Genius

.
After reading the Magic Tree House book #38, "Monday with a Mad Genius" (yes, we've read all 38 books in order and the kids can't get enough of them), we decided to find out even more about this genius of an artist named Da Vinci. So after doing some research and learning how exciting this man is, we decided to paint our own picture of Mona Lisa.
.
While painting, Gracie zoomed through her work as she typically does, while Colton slowly took his time, as he typically does.
.
Gracie commented on how she finished so fast and I finally had a good come back for this statement.
.
"You know, it took Leonardo three years to complete his painting. He didn't rush but carefully took his time to do his best."
.
Colton just gave a little grin of a smile as he kept on painting.
