Why I don't get to sleep in...




Sunday morning I woke up to Jayben yelling that he wanted chocolate milk and a movie. Ben got up and gave the boy what he wanted, then he came back to bed. I was so excited to finally get to sleep in a little bit with Ben. So, we cuddled up together and fell back to sleep. About a half an hour later I woke up and thought that Jayben was being really quiet. I got out of bed, walked into the kitchen and there he was with a sharpie in hand. I said, "oh, wow! What else did you color?" He answered and told me all the stuff he had drawn on. The worst was that he colored our new wood floors. I couldn't be mad, I just laughed and told him we better clean it up before daddy saw it. Hooray for magic eraser. You can't even tell. As for the Z on Jayben's forehead (and no, we are not Harry Potter fans) I used an alcohol wipe and it did the trick.

For all those mornings you are wishing you could just sleep in a little bit longer, make sure the sharpie is out of reach!!
