Maya happened upon some blue fingernail polish this afternoon, due to the somewhat masculine color, Harrison was convinced it was meant for him and all but insisted I paint his fingernails. I tried to explain that boys don't usually paint their nails (of course, we've all seen exceptions to this social norm, but for my 3 year old? I prefer to keep it basic). I compromised by allowing him to paint my toenails. Confident of my victory, I went in the house to check on napping Henry and came back to find this:
I'll just keep telling myself that with Harrison? I pick my battles.... and washable blue fingernail polish isn't one of them.

We can't wait to come see you. I think I'm most excited to see Harrison in action.
This is classic. I can't count the number of times Adam was forced to play dress up with Erica and I--or the times we practiced putting makeup on him. Poor boy.
I think bubble-gum-blue looks exquisite on you sis!! I'm glad to see that harrison has such a feminine side...the girls will love that :)
He did a great job! I agree--some battles are not worth fighting.
Maria and I were both agreeing that your Harrison unbelievable! Watch out world, a leader is in the making!
Sorry about that. I feel largely to blame for that battle and defeat.
Wise Mom... Picking your battles are the test of a great Mom and you passed. Love you Amber
