Hole in 1...no make that 2

Walls!  Holes in two walls!  Put there by none other than Jeremiah of course.  And as soon as I saw them, I knew exactly what he used to put them there.  An umbrella.  Yep, and umbrella. It was one that I had scolded him about several times.  You see, I tried to be a "cool" mom by setting up a small Mickey Mouse patio table in their room since they have a beach theme going on in there.  I even set up the umbrella that goes in the center of the table which has three sections that snap together.  The very bottom section come to a point at the end (which by the way is ridiculous and dangerous to have on a CHILD's patio set).  I found Jeremiah wielding that piece like a sword on a few occasions and had already made the executive decision to remove the fun item from their room--even at the risk of losing my "cool" mom status.  With that being said, I was obviously too late.  All I could do was glare angrily at my son who was shielding himself as if I my look were setting him on fire.  And if looks could kill, I'm afraid that everyone in a 20 mile radius would have been goners.  Just saying.

Just outside of the bedroom in the hall
I would probably be blogging this somewhat calmly by now except that I found another wall that had been assaulted by a "sword" wielding three year old.  That would be the hall wall just outside of their bedroom door.  So now I am sitting here stewing as I take out my frustrations on the poor keys on my laptop.  I'm calculating cost of supplies to fill the holes and wondering if I can trust Jeremiah to fill them properly.  I suppose the one good thing that I can think of at the moment that has come of this would be that I can no longer put off painting their room like I have been for the past year and a half.  Time to make get decisive and choose paint colors.  I just wish it didn't take this incident to light a fire under ME.  *sigh*Latest shenanigans brought to you by The Hartz Crew
