HOW TO BE A LADY
By Lady Shells

You must always carry a purse, preferably pink.
You must develop your talents.

You must pack all necessities in your bag with care, including your hand held cellular device, you never know who will be calling in need of ladylike advice.
You must NEVER allow your older brother to draw on your face with markers!!
But if it happens, do not worry, we cannot all be perfect ladies all the time.
(Besides, it was more my Mommy's fault for not keeping a close eye on us while we were playing with the markers. She needs to work on her ladylikeness.)

that's hilarious! So cute!

Oh come on - Jorgen was just developing his talents and experimenting with different mediums and subjects!

i haven't decided if that is better or worse than walls!

jorgs was definitely experimenting... he got her face, shirt, legs and a little on himself. i went into the kitchen for a minute and came out to find my baby girl acting like a canvas. poor thing.

i'm not sure what's better either, it might be harder to erase on walls:) it came of quickly on her skin and even clothes. again, poor thing!

Darling little lady!! Made me smile. I remember Melissa about 6-8 months....not much hair. A perfect canvas for brother Miles who decorated her head with a magic marker........green stands out in my memory of being the color of choice but I might be getting confused with the time that Justin and Miles used green marker to decorate the living room carpet!! Loves to all!

What a patient sister. They are both cuter and cuter the older they get. And, I think you are my hero for having the strength to take two kids and live in Malaysia for a summer. What amazing memories you are making! Good luck!
