The writing is on the wall
that we have a bored, soon to be going to Kindergarten tomorrow, six year old.OR
that Mommy shouldn't have been spending so much time, Thursday Thirteening it.
OR
that Mommy owes a huge debt of gratitude to the blessed person who came up with the concept of the washable Rose Art marker.
Because ... that sampling. That was on EVERY SINGLE WALL in his sister's room. And her doors.
Those are the Door Man's initials. And his comment:
Well, this is going to be my room soon, anyway.
Who can argue with that logic?

I'm a mom of three peeps ... Queen Bee, The Door Man, and the Chandelier Monkey, and wife to Ace, the Helpful Hardware Man. I created this space to get away from the people known as my inlaws, and because life with three kids and a hubby is all Unexplored Territory.
The nine-year-old who seems to be growing older every minute, has an opinion and a comment for everything, and has a true servant's heart.
The seven-year-old who loves the organization of things, will someday be someone's therapist because of his kind soul, and will more than likely be living with us until he is 40 years old.
The five-year-old with the 13-year-old attitude, who has a dictator's personality, asks you to watch her all the time and say "hold on" to keep your attention, and will someday come home on the back of some dude's motorcycle with 10 tatts and a body piercing or two.
The man of the house, the fixer of things, the winner of prizes, and the only person in his family to escape the South.

Reminds me of the stories of when I was a kid and wrote--in pencil--"C" all over the bay window shelf.
When asked, I denied it. Denied.
I wish, now, I would have used your son's logic. Honest and sensical!
Great story! Brought a much-needed smile to my face today.
I have one, my oldest, who carved my pseudo-stepson's (his arch nemisis) initials into a chair. His response was, "I didn't do it, those aren't my initials, those are D's!"
Too bad his tell-tale lie smile gave him away.
Oh, and my mom decided to do a little decorating of the walls when she was little, too. What did she write...
I love my mother.
Over and over and over again.
My grandma says she had a hard time being mad.
And to this day, my mom writes that on the back or bottom of every card she gives to my grandmother.
Oh dear. When my kids did that I had to paint the wall with a primer and two top coats!
That is GREAT! It makes me smile so much. Your kids are as full of personality as you are.
You've gotta love the way Kindergartners write. My son wrote this: URDBSTDADNDHLWORLDA over and over and over when he was five. I finally figured it out: You are the best dad in the whole world.
Apparently, I'm not much of a mom.:)
I'm glad to see your son's strong sense of self-esteem. I'm glad his marker is washable.
OMG, I'm rolling on the floor! At least it wasn't permanant marker!
Just marking his territory. LOL
Oh, you poor, poor woman!
Sorry, but this made me laugh out loud. Kids are a whole different kind of fun than we were expecting, aren't they?
