Kaylee and Colleen were painting a shoebox today to use for a Valentine box. I told them to please be careful with their clothes, because even though they were using washable paint, sometimes that stuff still doesn’t come out. Which started an argument about who should be MORE careful because they have more white on their shirt, and therefore more capacity for paint mishaps.
Finally, I couldn’t take it any more. “Just paint! There is no need to argue!”
Kaylee looked at me, confused. “But Mom, we can paint WHILE we argue.”
Seriously, they better be back in school tomorrow.
