Did you know that when your 18 month old son starts digging in a drawer in the coffee table he will find all sorts of things?
Did you also know that if same son digging in same drawer spies a tube of bright red lipstick he will take it and bring it into a corner?
And did you know that while this son has the bright red lipstick in the corner he will open it and smush the lipstick in his hands?
And how about this did you know that this same son would then smear the same lipstick all over his body- mainly on his left leg, right arm and belly but that he will also get some on his face, in his hair and on the bottom of his feet- as well as the pillow he is sitting on?
And did you know it is almost impossible- well I would say it is impossible- to remove said lipstick from said 18 month old boy?
And that when you try to remove the lipstick in the bath tub everything ends up with lipstick on it?
And once you are done getting as much off as you can using baby oil and baby shampoo and baby wipes that your child will still have a nice pink tinge to the leg, arm, belly, hands, feet and face where the lipstick was?
And that baby oil doesn't come out of hair easy?
And that the mom of said baby who did said cleaning now has pink tinged finger nails and random spots on her hands and arms that even the strong stuff won't get rid of?
Oh and the best part yet- if said boy goes to day care and his father forgets to tell the teachers about his adventure the night before that the day care owner will call in a panic when they change his diaper for the first time and think that he must be having some sort of allergic reaction and are pausing in their emergency protocols only long enough to see if said little boy's parents knew anything about this before dialing 911 or rushing him off to the hospital to evaluate said lipstick stains?
No you didn't know about that?
Funny I'm now currently an expert in it if you should have anything happen similar to this. Of course this obviously runs in the family- oldest son at about same age got into super glue when he was naked (not going to go into what all he glued where or anything), oldest daughter at same age colored herself green with a marker (her birthday is St. Patrick's Day but that was extreme) she got her entire body and I'm still trying to figure out how she got her back so thoroughly covered with green, and youngest daughter did the same as her big sister except she used blue and stuck mostly to arms and face- and her cotton top blonde hair that was blue for a month afterwards...
As soon as my kids do something else remarkable I will post another did you know... of course if I did stories from my niece I could go on forever with things like this lol.
