If you have children (or if you’re like me and you’ve had a lifelong gig as a babysitter), you know kids can be a handful. They’re not always going to do what they’re supposed to do — in fact, sometimes they’re going to do things that they definitely know they’re not supposed to do.

I love this! Someday when parents are old and grey they will wish they could find a little art piece like this.

If only my parents would have appreciated my masterpieces when I was still living in their house and taking Sharpies to all their walls. If only.
