When Will I Learn?

Tonight as I was making dinner, Shelby asked if she could make some "Halloween drawings" on the front walk. I told her sure and I put the green beans and potatoes on low so I could go watch her.

Literally took me one minute I'm guessing and I walked out to this...



Door? No...canvas, apparently.

 ...and I was once again reminded she should not EVER be left alone with things that transfer color, cut or stick.

Yes that's the front door (not the front walk). Yes that's chalk. Yes it did wash off. Yes...I should've said, "Wait while I turn the beans down so they don't burn and I'll come with you."

One would think I'd learn my lesson, but the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

In other words, she gets her stubborn streak (as well as her creativity!) from your's truly. Sometimes ya' gotta take the good with the bad! Or at least the good with the...stubborn.
