Happy It Wasn't The Walls

Filed Under: Family, Photography

This is what Dustyn was doing last week while I thought he was napping. I had cleaned out the extra closet in his room and put the markers on his dresser. My plan was to take them to the kitchen and put them with his crayons. Well I forgot and I guess they were too tempting for him. He colored on his hands, legs, face and a piece of paper. I am just so glad he didn’t color on the walls, dressers or train table!

    Why do they feel the need to color their bodies? WHY? I hardly ever bring out the markers here because every time it ends up on clothes, walls, eyeballs, etc...

    Well... he does have an eye for pretty colors! Made for some wonderful photos to capture the moment! :) Here from communal global!

    I know you are relieved it was just his skin that became a colorful exhibit of his artistic flare instead of your walls.

    And it happens in a "flash"! I've had 3 children and I teach Preschool, so I know that if you look away for a second, disaster can, and many times does, strike. But, even when it does, it makes a "good story" a few years down the line. Very cute. Mickie

    We do not keep markers in our house for this very reason. Once my middle son, then two, found some paint and covered his face black and blue. I had to take him to the busstop looking like I'd just beaten him to meet my Kindergartner. I wasn't able to get pictures which I now regret. Your pictures are great!

    What a great touch up. Love how you lightend it up! It's a really beautiful capture...

    My sisters kid (who is almost 3) got into an ink pad that she had tucked away somewhere and put red handprints allllll up and down the hallway.. And funny enough, right now I am sitting with Seraphina in my lap and I thought I would occupy her with a marker and a piece of paper..that did not last very long..now we are both covered in (washable!!) blue marker-what was I thinking?! Great edit, by the way!

    Oh My Goodness!!! This brought back memories of our dear friends' son. There was never a naptime that he just took a nap. {agreed you are lucky it wasn't the walls!!} ;o){adorable capture} be blessed t

    Hehe....ya been there. Two of mine were being super quiet in their room, went in and they were quite busy coloring all over the walls. ACK!

    Wow, and looks like he used a wide variety of colors! I've had writing on the wall (sharpie on wallpaper, ink pen on paint). Mr. Clean magic eraser works wonders if that ever happens! Cute capture, btw!

    Too funny! {I like that you show the SOOC, too.} I've gotten some recent pictures around our house that look similar... :) Our girls colored on my kitchen wall with crayons once. I actually haven't cleaned it off. I kinda like it! Oh, but I won't tell them that until they're much much older! ;)
