Practicing her art with a green marker and her sister!



Well I guess you can say that Nathan's campaign is allowing out children to experiment with their creativeness? We were all full swing in to tying to get a 500 piece mailing out last night when Emma comes climbing down the stairs. She is literally GREEN from head to toe! That is one of those parent moments when you know that someone should be in trouble, but you can't stop laughing to find out who. Well, the majority of the marker was on her legs, belly, and most of all her toes ( I think they were trying to paint Emma's toenails?) Anyways, Emma doesn't seem to mind at all and Maddelyn is proud as a peach of her newest "living scrapbook" as we like to say. It is not a rare thing for Emma to end up with stickers...glue stick or the sort on her. We asked Maddelyn what happened and her answer was "Emma did it." Well after a bit more investigation we found out that Maddelyn's bed, sheets, and pillow case were also covered in green stripes. So, Maddelyn then admitted that she did Emma's belly, legs, and feet...but Emma did the bed and her face. LOL! Too funny! It's kinda of obvious which child was to blame when Maddelyn had a few green marks on her...most were on her RIGHT HAND (drawing hand) and Emma was covered! LOL! After two baths, Emma is still a faded greenish color. Well I guess we will have to wait on those Easter pictures until AFTER Easter! The joys of being a mommy of toddlers!
