Midweek Random Pictures - Thoughts!?!?

Just had to post this cute picture of my main man Jake.....I keep a floor fan near my computer desk during the day so I don't' have to keep the A/C freezing all day long (since I work from home)....today I happened to turn around and saw Jake enjoying the breeze and I thought it looked just like a Cindy Crawford model pose with the simulated breeze! Isn't he such a stud muffin...too bad we took away his ability to have little Jake's...he has such great genes! And what is so exciting about this picture....well that's the joy of the picture. I worked really hard so that you can't tell what makes this picture special. See the story goes....yesterday my dear Kate was coloring in her coloring book with a purple crayon (you probably are getting a good idea of where this is going) and I was chatting on the phone for a short 5 minutes (hence the reason I HATE talking on the phone). Kate kept asking me to color with her..I told her to wait until I was off the phone...she didn't wait and the next thing I know Wesley is pulling on my leg telling me to 'Come see what Kate drew!'. So I did....I saw a HUGE PURPLE drawing on our white walls....it was about 2 ft by 2ft. So (after much scolding) I grabbed the Magic Eraser and Erased and Erased and Erased. Had to follow up with a call to dad to bring home more Magic Erasers..and he did. 4 of them. And after a lot of scrubbing you can't even tell what she did. Which unfortunately defeats a lot of the scolding I did. I basically had to tell her that Santa may not visit b/c she did something very bad and now Mommy and Daddy would have to pay the people we rent the house from and we may not have money for gifts. So what was the final verdict: 'Well look Mommy...you can't tell I drew on the wall so we won't have to pay the people any money.' End of discussion. I didn't have a rebuttal.
