Handprints on the glass

After we dropped Donna and Alex off at school, we went to the church. I needed to talk help get our Food Bank order ready. As usual Bruce handed Chloe and Reed a nice big handfull of candy, no joke. The candy he had were "stampers". It is a stamp that you lick the end to make the "ink" wet, then you can stamp the picture on whatever you want. So Bruce tells them to stamp their face etc. Chloe was actually kinda neat about it (If you can call a dragon on your forhead neat), but Reed was just a big blue dripping ball by the time we left. Of course they each picked the blue one to start with.

Oh, did I mention that Chloe had used lipstick (no idea why it was in the van) as lotion and had it all over her body when we got there? She even had a chunk, yes a chunk of it in her hair. So when I got done with the list, we got ready to go. I stopped to talk to George for a minute and Chloe and Reed went out the first set of doors. They were quiet and Ethan kept laughing at them, so I let them stay there. Chloe would back away from the window, then run up to Ethan and he would slap the glass and laugh and laugh. After a couple minutes, I noticed that we had many lipstick handprints all over the glass from Chloe. Reed was leaving sticky blue candy handprints, and Ethan had spit/drool prints he had smeared all over the door. The price I pay to talk to someone. (I wish I could add smileys, I would add a grin here)

I grabed some windex and cleaned the glass doors before leaving, but they had to keep hitting the door to make new handprints. As I cleaned one spot, one of them was on the other side of the other door. Next time I will rememeber to bring windex wipes and wipe it as we are walking out into the parking lot. I think it took me about 5 minute just to wipe down the 2 glass doors. I really need to remember to send a thank you to the Peterson's for all the work they do cleaning!

So we get in the van and Chloe says "Do we have to go home? I like it there, or even we could go to Donalds. I have a money back here."(yes she said A money) Nice try, but I don't think a single penny is going to pay for "donalds".

We get home and Chloe has a pocket full of candy stamps that I forgot about. So as I am typing this, I just look in and see her sitting on the floor covering her legs and any uncovered skin with more stamps. I better go save Ethan before he gets into the stamps.

Today I feel blessed by being able to enjoy my youngest 2 kids.
Oh, and I am really feeling blessed that Adam mowed last night!!! I came out and finished up the mowing while he did some other yard work.
