do you have any games?.....

that's what she asked me. 

sadly, i said, "no, i don't have any games," but you can paint."

she said, "okay" and smiled up at me.

she lives kitty corner from us. she's a triplet and one of five kids. 

her mom and i are friends. she's the mom i refer to as "the saint."

seriously, if you have five kids under the age of 9 and you stay home with them,

YOU ARE A SAINT.

the night before i stole this one to run errands with me and play in my paint stash

{i didn't really. she willingly came with me} 

her sister {one of the triplets} broke her arm. they all start school next week. bummer.

so you've figured out by now that there's a total of seven in her family. 

i almost lost it when she told me who's in the painting and that she didn't want to paint the others on the back. that four was enough. i can keep secrets, so to protect the innocent, i can't tell you who didn't make it into the family portrait. holy crap. who would have thought that a five year old could make me laugh so hard.
