Paint Touch-Up Kit comes in handy

Yesterday the older girls and I were busy in the kitchen, chopping apples for applesauce, the baby was sleeping, and I realized Joanna was somewhere else. You moms out there know what I'm talking about - that moment when you realize it's gotten too quiet and the pace of your heart quickens along with your footsteps as you rush to stop whatever is happening somewhere else.

This is what Joanna was doing:




It was black permanent marker, of course, that doesn't wash off semi-gloss paint. Thankfully I had my handy touch-up kit in the pantry and within the hour Joanna was in bed and I had repainted my hallway. Joanna's artwork actually extended the length of the hall and around the corner. It was about twenty feet of scribble that was taken care of really easily. Hooray!
