As you know, Grant enjoys coloring/drawing on anything that doesn't begin with the letter P and end with APER. This time, he did not color on sheets or on his bedroom furniture. This time, Picasso created a masterpiece on his own body. I guess the window markers were just too enticing and he couldn't resist decorating his face.
Adam was watching Grant and claims that he just walked out of the kitchen for a few seconds and when he came back in this is what he found.
I was in the bedroom getting Grace ready. Then Grant took his artwork on the road and came back to visit me so I could see his masterpiece. And what a masterpiece it was. I couldn't believe my eyes! Then I saw his daddy with a big smile behind him. We couldn't stop laughing. Should we have been mad? Nope, I don't think so. Choose your battles (that's what my mom used to say) and really what does it hurt? Window markers wash off and even if they didn't it would fade at some point. Thanks lighting us up inside, Grant. (But as a disclaimer son, if you EVER get real body art done...tattoos...whatever...don't show me cuz I will lose it and you will not be able to run fast enough to get away from me. Luckily, I don't think I will have to worry about that but you never know).
On another note, Grant is super excited for Christmas and Santa.
In fact, he has "written" Santa a few letters. Even before Thanksgiving! He asks for paper and then goes to work while telling me, "I'm doing letters, Mommy! A-N-T!"
He even wrote a letter from his stuffed dog, Max (our 3rd child).
Grant would like a "fiyah engwin and a purple rody horse" and Max wants a green dog. Luckily, Santa found a green dog...it was hard work he said but he pulled through for Bug. Grant did great with Santa this year and our little Butterfly slept through it.

I bet Grant was so proud of himself! I completely agree with choosing your battles. That way they know it what rules are most important, like not touching a hot stove! Oh wait, myles did that... Anyway, cute pictures of Grant, Max and Santa! I think Max is the greatest third child ever!
Love it! I can't wait to take Piper to see Santa.
