About 4 days later, Navie had another episode of curiosity. I was gone for about an hour and left Navie with her daddy at home. Jason was working on rotating two of the tires on the Altima. When I returned home, I found Navie sitting on the floor covered in red permanent marker. She covered every inch of her legs and arms that were not covered by clothing. There was also some on her mouth (lipstick). Navie's baby doll also suffered greatly during this experience. She now looks pretty scary. This was another unfortunate time when I was too embarrassed to take a picture of my beautiful girl turned red. I didn't think it woud be possible to get my clean little cutie back but it only took 2 baths and lots of scrubbing to get the marker off. Again, Navie is quite the mess maker, she was the only thing (besides the doll) covered in marker. The floor, the walls, and her clothes were all clean. In fact at some point in coloring all over herself, she also managed to draw a few pictures on paper!
These are not her only stunts that get me going. Her latest thing is eating the pages in her books. I threatened to take all her books away. I just can't do it though. She loves books so much, she literally eats them.
What a welcome to motherhood! Oh, boy! Well, I have to say that it is really sad around school! We sure miss you! Hope things are going well for you! Good Luck with the potty training!
ReplyDeleteMy mom says that when I was a kid I colored with permanent marker on my legs almost every Saturday. My mom had to buy me thick tights to wear to church all the time...even in August. Hehe.
