What compels children to color on themselves? Or on the walls for that matter? Nathan will color on anything, given the chance. Last week he took the dark wood chips from my flowerbeds and used them to color on my white garage door. He consistently tries that one.
Spencer took a grey marker and colored all over Nathan. Spencer knows better. When he got caught he even had that guilty look. It kind of looks like Spencer drew on Nathan to resemble a tiger's stripes? And what is the saying? Before you get mad, take a picture. That always seems to work for me and by the time I have taken the picture I have also calmed down.
I have discovered Mr Clean magic eraser and good 'ol fashioned paint work the best to cover things up.

I agree that before you get mad you should take a picture. I have some great ones of Eden and Neve. Once they found a green & black marker and colored each other as a witch and a black cat. It is still one of my favorite pictures because it makes me laugh!
