As a mother I would be lost without

bubble baths!

Alas, not that I have taken one in YEARS

but my daughters

take

**at least**

one

a

day.

I am grateful for

a tub

water

bubbles

&

the HOURS of enjoyment that ensue!

That is my little horn and yes, I am going to “toot” it. So if you want to skip me congratulating myself for being a rock star mom don’t read on.

You’ve been warned.

Every once and awhile I just have to take a step back and say, “Way to go, champ!” And this was one of those times.

Millie was needing a new something to do. I think she’d already taken two baths, watched a show and played with her toys. Invariably the next thing that comes is the question, “what else is there to do mom?”

And then it hit me! Months ago I had bought a book and hid it on top of my wardrobe (a long with a few other goodies that I had forgotten about – hello, can someone say birthday presents!)

It was one of those Klutz books that had these awesome body crayons.

Behold!

In case you are wondering that is a chicken. You’re seeing it now, right?

A classic. Thumb and index finger make the perfect mouth, would you agree?

Here we have Bellybutton lady. I think she’s got attitude.

Millie wanted a piggy on her right knee and a cow on her left.

And it all washed off in the bath tub. No scrubbing required. But something went horribly wrong with Millie’s eyes…

3rd bath is the charm, they say.

P.S.

I was in rock star mode after all, and you know how rock stars can be.
