People say when your kids are being quiet that is when you know they are up to something. But what if they are supposed to be quiet? I'm sure you can see my dilemma. William spends about an hour in quiet time, sometimes more (don't call it naptime or he will freak out), where he is allowed to read or color. If he needs something he usually knocks on the door, he would open it but our bedroom door sticks so he can't get it open. Really I'm not supposed to hear from him unless he needs to go to the bathroom. So last week he knock on the door and this is what I found waiting on the other side.
He told me that he liked his bellybutton best. The details that you can't really see are the smiley faces on his face, even one on the tip of his nose, and on his knees. So we needed an emergency bath, of course Caitlyn woke up for that and wanted to get in, and the discussion that markers are for paper and if there is anymore drawing on ourselves they don't get to be in quiet time. William's response, "I just wanted to do it once." Of course, it is hard to discipline him when I am trying so hard not to laugh.

That is so FUNNY. I only wish I could enlarge the picture to see the detail.
That is funny. No wonder you were having a hard time not laughing. Good job on the fence. It looks great, especially the gate. Take care!
William is so adorable! I love you William! I bet that was a hard mess to clean up. :-) The fence looks excellent! I love you all!

Hey Marybeth, Awsome blog. I added you to our list. Hope you don't mind. I did not know that you were expecting, or I forgot and was reminded. William is too funny. Hopefully the I just wanted to try it once philosophy is not something he sticks with. Love, Emi
