Good Mom/Bad Mom

The kids had a half-day of school...
We were looking for something fun, unique, cheap to entertain ourselves.
The kids decided that they wanted me to paint their faces.
And why not?
We had a whole bin of craft paints 
in my closet.
So after deciding on their designs 
and

trying very hard to sit still  
(for what seemed like forever)
they happily lined up to admire 
themselves in the mirror...

Valerie
aka: Miss Flower Fairy


Courtney
aka: Miss Mis-Matched 


* life was good 
in the Taylor home
* my little Peeps 
were so very happy
* and proud 
of their artistic masterpieces
 
until
the itching began...
which led to

V



an extremely long (2+ hours), painful removal.
rats.
fyi: a combination of vegetable oil & vanilla handsoap will remove craft paint from skin... not that we will EVER try this again.

Great artwork and we know you had good intentions! Glad you were finally able to peel, scrub, scrape it all off!

Another hidden talent of yours has just been unleashed - face painting!!! Do we have another mutual activity in the makings?????

My kids do face paint all the time! We use the watercolor paint though. Your kids are so cute and you are so creative. When Josh asks me to paint his face he requests "flames" coming out of his nose. Nice....
