rector, I can remember our youngest daughter painting her bedroom walls
with smoething a little more pungent...needless to say she went into writing that painting.......

Thre is a fascination for small children
with the vast, unmarked expanse of a wall.  Luckily most of them do grow out of it, but every child I have ever known has done it (including me :P ).

Congratulations to your daughter on her first academic paper, you must feel very proud of her. I understand your feelings about your budding graffiti artist granddaughter. Did my daughter do things like that; only once if I remember rightly. I do remember doing chalk drawings on the pavement and the neighbor's reaction .

So happy to see you're enjoying your retirement. Loved the tale of your grand-daughter. I know nothing of such things of course. LOL

I grew up on Lamb being an Aussie and all and a farmers daughter to boot
My kids painted a few walls but never at the grandparents. or in public places.  I've missed you my fav. rectoress.

Like they say in the States, "Rock on!"
 As for your granddaughter she’d make a good NYU student. I know a place where the students draw graffiti on the restroom walls.  Just like her age group. Excellent! Always, BC-A, Bill’s RJJst

The very best lamb doesn't have that strong flavor that shouts "Sheep!"  Some I had in NZ was very delicate indeed!  What we get here in the US isn't nearly as nice!
