Naughty, Naughty Girl!

Today Amelia kept telling me she was tired.  We came home from running errands and I thought she was going to fall asleep in her lunch.  When we went upstairs she begged for her jammies and then prompty crawled into bed with her books.  Almost 30 minutes later she was still awake.  After 45 minutes I saw her jumping on the bed (gotta love the video monitor) so I went in to scold her.  She told me she wanted to sleep in my bed and gave me the whole water works show.  I fell for it so we went into my room and I tucked her in and went back to packing in the other room. 

After abouth 15 minutes of silence I peeked in to make sure she was asleep.  Instead I found her standing on Shaun's side of the bed with a green Sharpie in had gleefully coloring on the cover of his brand new ChromeBook.  Then I spotted a wet spot on the carpet.  She was dry so she didn't have an accient.  I found a bottle of gel muscle cream stuff empty on Shaun's night stand.  Sure enough, that's what it was.  I asked her why she colored on the computer and she said "Because I did."  UGH, that answer drives me CRAZY.  So I asked her why she squeezed out the gel and she said "Because it was so fun to squeeze it" with the biggest grin on her face - she obviously had fun doing it.  I had to bite my lip not to laugh.  I sent her to her room and made her sit there until Shaun came home.  Luckily he didn't kill her and with some elbow grease and a Clorox wipe you really can't see it anymore.
