  • Let’s Buy White… Said No Mother Ever

My mother the artist, she brings out the colorful, artsy side of my children. When they visit with her I make sure to pack extra clothes. One time my mother encouraged them to color of the walls in a place that she was staying to make the walls more fun. Needless to say it took me a long time to break my oldest of writing on the walls and I still find little doodles every now and then. 

Every time the kids draw on something they aren’t supposed to I send my mom a picture and tell her that it’s all her fault. She gets a good giggle out of it. Like the time my oldest drew balloons with her name in them on the back of her bedroom door with a Sharpie, or the time she took the pumpkin carving kit and carved a picture into the drywall. But who’s keeping count!?  o_O

The other day my youngest decided that she was going to color on our dinning room chairs.

Our newest artist has emerged. Should I frame it? #LittlePicasso #parenting #motherhood

I didn’t panic because the chairs are just $10 covers from IKEA. I bought them because they are washable, but I still had to send the picture to my mom to show her that the next generation artist has emerged. Her text message back was priceless and I couldn’t stop laughing.

Me- This is your fault, I’m sure of it. 

My mother- Haha. I think I’ll buy white, said no mother ever. 

Me – Touché

She got me there.

  • Oh man!! This totally made me laugh. My kids have had their fair share of major art debuts. Can’t say I’m ever thrilled about that, but you have a great attitude about it. We always know better, but sometimes we take the risk for something nice. Lesson learned!

    Firebird
    really liked it
    Firebird is a solid dark romantasy read. You have dragon-shifter political leaders of Rome. A witch who I don’t think we have seen the full extent of her power yet. There were so many little side stories told that I believe our FMC will ...
    Sunrise on the Reaping
    it was amazing
    Oh Haymich, my heart is shattered for you. This was the perfect bridge between The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes and Catching Fire. Linking the wickedness of The Hunger Games with the victors who came together to end them. If Suzanne C...

    This was a sweet romance read. I really enjoyed the audiobook narrators (Joshua Manning and Stina Nielsen). I don’t usually read books that fall into the religious category, but I’m a sucker for Scots and Irishman so that is why I wanted...
    My Demon Hunter
    really liked it
    I am thoroughly enjoying the Hell Bent series. My Demon Hunter was even better than My Funny Demon Valentine. I’m a sucker for demonology stories, and these are filled with all kinds of interesting characters. This one features a plus-si...
