Today I woke up to 2 soiled kids. Although with Naomi the potty training is pretty much complete she has accidents at bedtime and nap time. Next I clean the kitchen while give the kids a rare treat to a veggie tales movie from the library... next Naomi comes in and says she has fuzz stuck to her hands. I look and her fingers have clear polish on them and the living room has a strong odor of fingernail polish. She reached up on one of the 'off limit' surfaces and grabbed the nail polish and decided she could do it without asking and by herself. I think most of is on her nails, but she defiantly slung it around or something. It's clear so it's been hard to find, but so far a beanbag chair the computer desk and yes the computer screen all have nail polish on them. I might have gotten a tab bit more upset about it then I should, but I realized I was letting my emotions and feelings govern my parenting to much and just fed her lunch and sent her to bed. I was so upset at the deliberate disobedience that I just needed to confine her away from me. So nap time began more than an hour early with no toys or books.
Now to finish cleaning the kitchen and try to clean this mess up. I might just let Ben clean the computer screen or decide to leave it how it is. But first I'm going to go read my Bible and get my head back on the right way.
