The Hard Truth
In response to Kate on John and Kate Plus 8 calling her daughter’s pottery “real art:”
John: That is not, and never will be, real art.
Me: Just wait until your son makes something.
John: I’ll tell him I like it, I guess. I just won’t mean it.
Mom: Yeah- I still have that painting of a banana in our kitchen.
Me: Hey! You said you liked that picture!
Mom: Yeah…I do like it…
comments followed by quiet snortling as I realise that my banana isn’t art….
