Aaron and I went to visit a friend and her sons today. As my friend and I were talking I noticed that someone had colored on her wall with a purple crayon. So, I asked what had happened.
As she is telling me how much trouble her 3 year old got into for coloring the wall, Aaron picks up the exact same color crayon (I kid you not!) and continues what her son had started on the wall! I was mortified!
As I snatched the crayon from his hand and commenced to fussing at him about how naughty it is to color on the wall, my friend had to leave the room, because she was laughing so hard!
When she returned, I apologized profusely and offered to buy some paint to cover it up. She refused my offer, but said she would call me to help paint in 8 years when both her boys (she also has a 6 month old) are gone to school and she decides to repaint her house.
What is a true friend? One who only laughs when your child colors on their wall! Thank God for friends like that!
