Permanent Markers

I have been posting quite a few parenting tips about permanent markers lately. So, I write this at the risk of becoming known as the permanent marker blog.

It seems that my four year old daughter refers to permanent markers as “pregnant” markers. It took us a while to figure out exactly what she meant when she asked to use the pregnant markers. But after much guesswork we were able to decode the situation.

And then it dawned on me – my daughter is truly wise beyond her years. While markers are hardly pregnant, pregnancy is certainly permanent.

A good lesson to remember for the teenage years.

And one more phrase to add to “my favorite words“.

That is so cute. I think I will resort to calling them that :)
