Color me beautiful

As the girls sought to fill their time today while I finished working this morning, Mollie decided that today was the perfect day to play with markers. She found a box of markers in the drawer of "stuff" I keep for the kids. She grabbed some paper, and while I worked, this is what she did....

She said she wanted to make a hand print. So, she colored her hand.

Her beautiful art work

So we left to go home, it didn't dawn on me that it was super hot outside (I mean, I'm trying to forget that it's 100+ degrees outside) and that Mollie might get sweaty. This would lead to her needing to wipe her forehead....

Hmm....So this is why she wanted a wipe while we were in the car. Her forehead, nose and upper lip were all blue.

Our friend Ramona keeps telling me that before I know it I will look back and long for these days. Right now, I'm not totally convinced of this fact; but deep down, I know that she is right.
