fun friday...all good things come to an end...

so sad, but so true!  after 2 weeks of being on jury duty and the girls being either at grandma's, school or at home with nana...i think they were a little off schedule, sleepy and just out of sorts.
so it has been pay back time around here.  before jury duty...the girls were playing so well together.  their were not fights, hitting, biting, etc. going on around here...oh, that has all changed!

so...all good things come to an end...right?  i know it is another 'season' or 'phase' that we are in.  they are almost 3 1/2...and i think there is something about the 1/2 year mark...that just makes children crazy...a little out of sorts!

it was just too quiet in the house one day...and every mom knows when it gets too quiet, the kiddos are up to no good....

this is what i found!  mara had found a pen and decided to use the hallway wall as her paper.  now it would not have been that big of a deal, but i don't have the paint for this wall.  

so, today i am thankful for...

a little rubbing alcohol took all of the pen off my walls...thank goodness!

i am hoping this little 'phase' of out of sorts children will be leaving my house very soon! 
happy weekend!
