I have to say that last night was adventure for us. While Cody has been out in the field this week Jessica has been busy at home with Kaiya and Ellie. While bringing in the trash from the curb Kaiya decided that she was going to take a kitchen chair and push it next to the counter, climb on top of it and grab a Hot Pink Pen off of the counter and make mommy a very pretty picture on ever couch cushion of her tan leather sectional.
Needless to say when mommy walked through the door Kaiya was very proud and kept saying pretty while mommy freaked out and grabbed every imaginable cleaning product and special sponge possible to get it off of the couch... Good thing for Grandma's who have cleaning books with neat little tricks and tips on how to get almost everything imaginable out of what ever material... FYI Hairspray works wonder on in and leather (it will discolor the leather a little bit, but you wont have ink in your couch). A few minutes of coloring for Kaiya turned into 30 mins of cleaning for mommy. I am thankful for hairspray and leather cleaner and conditioner.

= no more pink ink on my couch!
While having a conversation with my mother she mentioned all the wonderful things that her kids loved to do when she wasnt looking to name a few:
coloring with crayon on the walls, cutting each others hair with kitchen scissors, throwing polo balls at each others faces and having to get stitches, running, screaming, fighting and just straight up not listening... the list went on and on.
I cringe at the thought of what she might do next, but hopefully I will be prepared to clean it up or be able to remove what ever she does to what ever surface she decides to do it on.
