The next morning Caleb comes into our room and announces, "You're not going to be happy when you see what Luke did!" Once again, I did what I always do and asked Joseph to please go and see what his child has done.
He comes back with a crying Luke in hand and this is what I saw:
Joseph's child had colored himself with a purple marker - all over his body. Seriously. He is almost 4 years old!! Definitely old enough to know better.
So, I did what any fabulous mama does. I grabbed my handy-dandy camera and told him to stand still while I took his picture.
I know, so mean!
If he didn't do silly things, I would't have to take a silly picture!

That is soooooo funny! :0) I love that you took a picture. Priceless! I have some similar ones with multi-colored marker but not quite as much coverage. I think he will love that one when he is older. I have missed some great photo opportunities when I didn't handle the moment quite as well.
Oh, you HAD to take a picture of THAT! I have a picture of Max, too, with blue and yellow highlighter all over his entire body.
Did you see Big Mama's post today? www.thebigmamablog.com Her daughter is almost 5. I just remembered that Max wrote all over himself last year (5 yrs, too) with a pen and I sent him to Cubbies that way.
I love your story! My daughter got into her tia's make-up at naptime at my in-laws. She got in a lot of trouble, but I had to take a picture first. The look on her face is priceless, and I get to see it everyday b/c I put it on my fridge. It's one of my favorite mommy stories.
That's hilarious! My cousin did something similar-- but instead of coloring herself she colored her baby sister in green permanent markers. Fun times!
I think it's most entertaining that you subtly referred to Luke as Joseph's child. Hahaha! So was the marker washable?
