Letting the kids be creative

Well, Amanda , letting the children explore their creativity sounded pretty nice, until now.

Medium of choice... brown sharpie marker.


The guilty party:


I find these situations to be almost humorous.
It reminded me of a story that I had completely forgotten. One of those that you want to be able to tell their grandchildren.
When my oldest was 4, she came to me and begged me to see the picture she had drawn. I was otherwise occupied, and said "I'd love to see it. Bring it here."
Her response? "I can't mommy, the wall won't come!"

    She looks VERY guilty! I sure hope that the creativity comes off! My kids did the same thing with a permanent marker, and also drew on the grout of the kitchen tile. It's still there, although a bit lighter from all the scrubbing! I'm sorry it happened, but I'm sure looking back even now at that guilty picture is humorous. :o)

    Well at least she is in the color scheme of your bathroom ;-)
    But I guess we all did that!
