i have my proof!

finally! i have proof that i work with kids! i know i have already mentioned that i work in one of Compassion International's field project here, here and here. and i did mention that it is a fulfilling job. but i think im re-evaluating that statement....
i left my purse on the top of my desk to talk to some parents and settle some things outside. when i got back somebody pointed out that i have a new artwork scribbled on my purse. this is a hand-me-down but i love this :-(. Oh well, i think i will need a new one now.


re-evaluation done: this is still a fulfilling job! and the artwork isn't all that bad, right? now i have a conversation starter! :-)

and to answer the un-asked question: no, i still don't know the artist who did this but i have my suspects. one 15 months old and one 3 years old :-)

Drats, is there no way to get it out? One of those Shout stain remover wipes?

Unknown said...

Too funny! Not looking forward to that stage of my life. I remember when my sister was that age and she wrote all over EVERYTHING. She even colored all the eyes blue in my parents' wedding album. Ooops....

If that is the only sign of working with children, you are still very lucky. I was a nanny for five years and have the grey hair to prove it. :)

Thanks for sharing and linking up over at Nanny2Mommy. :)

Have you tried Googling 'get pen out of leather?' There must be a way... maybe a professional leather cleaner?

My son put black Sharpie marker all over our brand new table (sigh) and we Googled it and found out that toothpaste on a soft bristle toothbrush would take it right out...and it did!

Whoops, someone thought your bag was a piece of paper.

Ouch! I have a love for handbags like no ones business so this really breaks my heart lol. Hope you are able to get the ink out. If not, it's a great excuse to get a new bag!
