Painting Gone Wrong











Friday the girls and I had a crazy busy day. We left the house a 7:15 am didn't get home until 4:45pm. I am was exhaused by the time I walked the door. The girls we so over tired that they we both extremelly fussy and clingy. It was too close to dinner for a nap and too early for bedtime, we have all be there right!?? So I decided to roll this poster board paper on the kitchen table and let the girls color with markers and crayons while I made our pizza. So I got everything ready and they started freaking out....they wanted to paint, not draw. So I said sure, we have plenty of paint, why not? So they started out sponge painting with these little sponge shapes I have for them. Well, once the paint touch their fingers they decided to finger paint instead. I am so pooped by this point to even stop them, so I let them go. You all know me and how hard that was for me to just let them finger paint. Well, Allora decided to paint her face. It was cute so I just sat back and watched. I look at Riss and said, don't even think about it". I turned back to Lora and just laughed at her sweet painted little face. As Shana would say, "never laugh if you don't want them to do it again". Well, we all know it was SUPER CUTE. I looked at Riss and she was ahead of me, yes, her face was painted. I just cringed.......Riss decided to suck her fingers. Yuck, I know. She starting spitting and begging for water. I mistakenly gave her a cup of water. I turned my back and she did it, yes, she poured the whole cup of water all over the painted and wet table. Now, they girls are rubbing the ripping this wilted paper all over the place. The whole event took 30 minutes but clean up took me 45 minutes. Who says mommys don't work hard labor?! Hugs!! Hope you enjoyed!!

  1. Good writing Tish. Sadly that sounds like such a typical day around here too. Speaking of which don't EVER EVER EVER buy your kids Moon Sand.
