Laugh Or Cry !!!

Ok Mike worked saturday and came home very tired, but i had to go grocery shopping so i asked him if he was ok to watch Micah while i went to the store for an hour and he said yes.
so i was gone for about an hour, love to shop without Micah with me can take my time, got my shopping done went home started unpacking the groceries, and Micah came running to the door with two "washable" markers in his hands covered head to toe in purple, orange and green colors, oh i just looked at him and said i hope to God you were coloring Daddy with those markers!!!
Went around the corner to the livingroom, Dad's asleep in the recliner and both my couches and carpet had a new look to them!!!! very colorful..
Oh my tooth was thumping, in pain from the root canal, kicked mike in the leg and said look at what your son did!!!! He just looked at me kinda stupid and said do you want to bath the kid or scrub the furniture... oh I just wanted to leave at this point... so i put the groceries away while Mike was bathing the kid, grabbed the run scrubber and started cleaning, i shoudl write to the company that makes them washable markers, cause when a 2 year old holds them down on the couch and it leaves a big blob it doesn' t come out that easily !!!!

At least he had the sense to wash Micah and the couches really fast!!! Did it all come off the furniture?

Does he have life insurance? (I'm just kidding!)

Judy i wanted to kill him!!! i can't believe he fell asleep, but that is a man for you...
and yes i got extra life insurance on him No it didn't come off that easy, i tried to hand scrub it first, but it looked like he had the marker held down on the furniture and it bled those were the hard parts to get out, so i just got the rug scrubber out and went over it a couple of times, and the next day i did the carpet.

I remember those days when my son was little. Matter of fact.....I have a stone fireplace and one day Ricky marked on it with a crayon. As picky as I am about things....I just didn't have the heart to clean it off and it's still there, after all these years. Not quite as visable, but still there. Most people would never see it, but I always do....my little artist...lol.

Awww Haley you need a I do remember those markers well lol and to be honest with you I didnt give the color markers to my kids at such a young age unless they were supervised... lol Men they don't think...I hate play dough to they were only allowed to play with that outside.. lol I was very fussy so don't go by me..

But you have to laugh I am sure Micah looked so cute ... Hope your feeling better with your mouth..

Your husband sounds pretty typical to me! That's something that my husband would have done, fall asleep while watching the kids. It's really hard to keep things looking nice. Thank goodness you had washable markers!!! And you were able to get it out!! Hopefully, your husband learned a lesson about watching Micah!!!
