Who would knowingly allow her children to finger-paint topless in November with berry stained hands just so she could get a little blogging done?
Me?
Never.

welcome to my world
I'm Jill, and I'm much scarier than I may appear. Or, at least I like to think so.
My son named me Scary Mommy during a phase where he was scared of everything, including his grilled cheese sandwiches. So, maybe I'm not all that scary after all, but Pushover Mommy didn't quite have the same ring to it.
I'm so glad you're here.

I’ve never let my kids finger paint in order to blog, but I do let them destroy the room and empty every drawer in the place.

I came over here from your comment on my blog… and now that I’ve read your blog on commenting, I feel like I probably shouldn’t mention that I came here b/c you commented on my blog, or that I think your site is great, or that I have a giveaway going on on my blog (ha, I don’t.)… so…um… *bites nails* maybe I should just go? ;)
(I really do love the neon pink hands.)

That is awesome. We did some finger painting this weekend and my little one still has blue under his nails. I’m thinking there is some serious berry colored paint in unmentionable places after that painting session!

those are some purple hands! I like that color and I think that I want Claire’s room painted that color. Will you loan out your kids?

Haha, Jill! I’d ‘never’ do something like that, either! Adorable pics!

Hey, it’s all in the name of your craft, right? Totally acceptable. Totally.

OMG, I love it! That gives “finger-painting” a whole new meaning! Are you going to be able to get it off?

Never did the finger-painting thing because with my two crazies, it would probably end up on the furniture, but I’ve been known to let them “free” play a little too long. ;)

Nice job!! I hope that wasn’t the neighbor’s fence or anything. I hope they didn’t scare any old people. I hope that stuff washes off.

I think what these pictures really show is child labor. You really wanted that fence painted for the holidays and you used your kids for your strange decorating purposes.

That looks like fun. I love the colors . But I am afraid if you did that here where I live, they would be frozen into ice cubes. It’s only 17 degrees and we had 2 feet of snow a few days ago ! Brrrr.

I would do that in a heartbeat if it kept the kids out of my hair.

We should compile a list of these because everyone goes in to shock the first time the old standby fails.
“Who wants to watch a movie?”
“nah…”
“What?!? Yes you do! You love movies! Lion King? The penguin movie? Shrek 14? Come one! Please!?!??”
