Painting

 

the idea was to paint the box…   it all started out so innocently.  a little paint on the brush….

a little decorating on the box

 

then Ethan decided to paint “toe prints”

 

and Alyssa decided to see what she would look like with blue hands

 

then blue with colorful spots

then Matthew came home and “got in on the action”   I thought it was going to get a bit crazy then, but surprisingly, Matthew didn’t participate much.   phew, I got off easy on this one!

this boy was serious about what colors his fingers would be

fortunately, with a little bit of water, my children went back to looking like the pale children I know and love.
