Baby Tattoos

So, I want to know whose idea it was to put the Sharpie markers by the candy in the checkout isle at Walmart. Like I don't have enough to keep my eye on, loading the cart, making sure the kids don't open any of the impulse-buy candy, and weeding out the things that mysteriously appeared in my cart that had no intention of buying. So after grocery shopping for two hours with three kids that like to run in three different directions and having my banana's stepped on, I turned to grab my two year old and found that she had discovered the permanent markers and proceeded to give herself baby tattoo's up and down her arms. FYI you can get permanent marker of skin in two days if you sit the kid in a warm bath for 20 and then scrub with a wash cloth. Also, permanent marker is also mostly removable from washable microsuede but it is difficult to get off walls so just paint over it...

Don't even get me started about the impulse toy/candy that is the bane of my existence...

Sometimes I wonder if you know too much about how to get yourself out of kids' messes ;-) I now know who to come to...
