Last Monday we had a Snow Day. Instead of despairing, I let the kids stay in their PJ's all day, and dragged out the painting gear. It was Andrew's first time painting. He did all right, all things considered. This photograph was taken just about three seconds before he turned and painted my cookbooks blue. When he was done I kept finding blue paint on the counters, and I realized he had reached underneath his smock and smeared a thick layer of blue on his white PJ's, and he was calmly finger-painting the kitchen.
Painting falls into the same category as sledding: lots of prep time, 5 minutes of activity, lots of clean up.
