Painting

I do not like to let my kids paint, and this is why. I can't remember the last time I let any of them paint, so I decided to go ahead and try [my friend just let her kids do it, so i thought i'd do it too]. I quickly decided this is a "grandma's house" activity only :) I have a rainbow colored slide outside, freshly painted shoes that look "so much prettier", and a new painting shirt (i know, that one was my fault, i should have put an apron on). My poor art box is not going to be getting much use...
