Oh, the humanity! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh no!
ReplyDeleteOy! I hope you have more of that in your stash.
ReplyDeleteOuch!
ReplyDeleteEeeeeeeek! Run away! Run away! Oh, the curiosity of the little ones....
ReplyDeleteoh, the horror! The horror!
ReplyDeleteIt must be said that one may substitute "ornery cat" for "4 year old" and achieve similar results, lack of opposable thumbs be damned.
Oh, can I relate! Take one bathroom with still-wet fresh wallpaper job, 4-year-old "artist" with large felt-tip permanent red marker and you get the picture! Mommy needed a time out with a large bottle of wine!
ReplyDeleteOMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
ReplyDeleteOh no!!
ReplyDeleteOh s ----! This ties yarn pron's entry about her son writing w. the marker. Hope it turns out well - your readers feel the pain. Terry
ReplyDeleteBetween my cat and dog, they made similar hash of some lovely unspun icelandic. No deadline involved, for me though, so it doesn't even begin to compare.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to add eerie silence to the list.
ReplyDeleteThat's how Emma ended up cutting Alexander's hair when he was a baby.
Hope it all worked out.
Oy!!!
ReplyDeleteOh ow!! But oh my, how great a story you're going to be able to tease said four-year-old with once the teens hit. And the measure of a successful mother of a teen is being able to cheerfully and happily mortify them over things of no consequence (by then, at least) as part of their learning to get over themselves. A way of teaching them to laugh at themselves.
ReplyDeleteWhich is always very useful when they've just done such a thing.
My then-four-year-old allowed near his sister's scissors in the back seat gave himself a masterful hair cut. In the car on the way to my brother's wedding. The photographs were permanent.
Oh dear! I am sorry!
