Picasso

Camden's coloring on the wall habit is getting out of control! Every. Single. Day. Ahhh- I don't know how much more I can take. He colored on every wall in the basement, including Morgan's new pink room, in BLACK sharpie marker. Thank goodness for the Magic Eraser. I really was amazed it worked on permanent marker. But it is still getting old. He has colored almost every day this week. I have thrown away crayons, markers, pencils, and somehow, he finds them. It is the first thing he thinks to do when he is left in a room for more than one second by himself. The other day he says in the firmest voice, "Mommy. Look into my eyes. We NEVER color on the walls. OKAY?" Apparently he was repeating word for word, in the same tone that Matt said to him. He KNOWS he shouldn't, but can't seem to help himself. He even went so far as to ask me if I knew where his purple crayon was. I asked why and he said, "I wasn't done coloring on the wall." He flat out admitted that's why he wanted the crayon! The nerve. :) I just have to keep reminding myself that this too shall pass.
