I HATE GLITTER!!!!!!

[janradder]

I came downstairs from my shower to find that Éiden, who has been only wearing socks and underwear since tiring of his Superman costume, was covered -- and I do mean covered -- with glitter from his eyes all the way down to his ankles.

"Éiden, how did this happen?" I ask while futilely attempting to remove the glitter from his skin.

"I wanted to see which picture was mine."

On Sunday, the boys both made glitter pictures which were placed up high on a shelf to dry.  Apparently, finding out which picture was his involved carefully removing as much glitter from the pictures as was humanly possibly and then reapplying it to every inch of bare skin.  Arrrghhh!

I love the awesome appropriateness of your chosen icon.

See, this is exactly reason why I did not include the industrial-sized canister of glitter in my box while raiding a retiring teacher's supplies today.

Glitter should be considered haz-mat and come with proper disposal protocol written on each jar.

(Are you a teacher?)

I'm not a teacher -- I'm the data geek (documentation and statistics) for the school's Healthy Start program, which provides physical and mental health services for kids K-12 and their families. I like being part of an organization in a small enough town that can actually help kids and see the results of our help.

That is nice, being able to see the results.
