If You Can't Beat 'Em.....

Oh I just have to share!!! Number 4 has been driving me crazy. Nothing new, but in a new way. When we moved into our home just over a year ago, we painted his room because we had to tear down some seriously hideous wallpaper.  DH very lovingly decorated it with a fisherman theme.

To which he is still pretty committed.
No changing it at this point. 



However, #4 has decided to take up another new hobby. He is picking the paint off his walls, (down to the drywall in some spots). Every morning when I go in I have to steel myself to keep from giving him the reaction he is looking for. And he is very tuned in. Even a brief flash of my eyes in the vicinity is satisfying for him!  Despite my having a vivid imagination, in reality there is no way to stop him doing it. So, what to do, what to do…….

I decided to join him! Today while he was at school, I had some great fun!!! Just me, my fingers, and some left over paint samples. I guess there’s a little bit of the tagger in all of us, not matter how old we get.

Now I can’t keep myself out of his room!

 I. love. It!

 Just have to keep a lid on the glee when he sees it.
