The Dreaded Day Has Come

I can't keep Mo away from writing utensils - particularly pens. No matter where they might be lurking, the trouble maker will find them. Over the last several days, she has managed to write all over my brand new placemats on the dining room table, the wall, the entertainment center, a filing cabinet, and herself. And no matter how closely I am watching her, she still manages to be sneaky about it.

All I can say is thank goodness for the magic eraser. Otherwise, I'd be screwed. (Although the magic eraser doesn't do much good for fabric placemats).

As Isaac is suffering from the same affliction, I recently found a great website on how to get ink stains out of fabric. Good luck!

I had a friend who we call "Moe" in highschool. My daughter had been a pen freak too for a long time, she will be 3 next month.Now that she is older she is actually starting to make pictures and letters instead of scribbles though...lol!

Aaaahh! Memories of the Mo-meister's daddy.
He was so good at that! He was really good with crayons in the nursery during church. He was so good he pulled the playpen as close as he could to a table and opened the drawers. Oh, the treasures he found in there, crayons, pens, pencils. He pulled them out, reached for the near by wall and began his "David-caso" A masterpiece that mommy and daddy had fun in trying to get off, before the corps officer found out about it.
Wish there was a "magic eraser" back then.

Like Father...Like Daughter.

Love, Gram

Luckily we are packing boxes to move so beaux is taking his crayon and coloring on all of the boxes. Hopefully, he does not discover that he can write on walls as welL!
