Getting into mischief!

I was getting ready to help out at church yesterday. Coming out of the bathroom, heading into the living room, I see my 3 year old sitting on the couch with a tub of Ovaltine! He looks up at me and the only thing he says is, "It's good." All over my couch, powder and a healthy mixture of it mixed with toddler spit! Sitting there, Jairus is scooping out handfuls of the chocolate milk mix, and eating it out of his hands. So much so, it looks like he is wearing wet brown gloves! Running late, I didn't even say a word, I wasn't sure how to handle it, so I tossed him in the tub to let the cowagulated chocolate melt in the warm water. While he is in the tub, I vacuum the dry powder. I decided to tackle the gooey spots when I get home. How does this happen at the MOST inconvienent moments? Like on my way to SERVE THE LORD? But let me tell you all something awesome! Microfiber is the best fabric EVER! When we got home, I dampened a cloth and used hand sanitizer, and I can't even tell where he violated my sofa. That is something I am so thankful for, my couch has been put to the test-several times, and has passed with flying colors. Our sofa was worth every penny.

That is funny! The sad thing is this will not be the first big mess he makes when you are in a hurry! Have Fun and enjoy him! With mischief comes lots of memories you will look back at and laugh.
