I’ve officially been tagged twice, once by Elizabeth and then by Stephanie. I’m suppose to tell you "5 Weird Things About Me" and then post on "Confessions of a Stay at Home Mom". I can’t come up with anything half way creative, thus part of my delay!! However, I do have a few crazy things that happened to me in a very short period of time. I’ve titled it……

Weird Confessions of a Mom with an Overactive Three Year Old

While attempting to clean my house…………..

1. After hearing the side door to out garage open and close several times, I told Jax "Do not go outside in the garage while I clean Ellexa’s room." Two minutes later I hear the door open again. This time he went outside the front door and he had thrown all the eggs we had in the refrigerator, one by one, across the front porch!!

2. Jax is not allowed to have food on the carpet. I remind him of this on a daily basis. While cleaning the kitchen I discover my bedroom had become his culinary art canvas. He’d mixed water and goldfish crackers together to create a nice doughy mixture that was spread across my carpet floor. (same day as #1)

3. Jax uncovered a bottle of red nail polish and began his painted work of art on my white bathroom tile. I found him just as he was about to "clean up" his mess with my decorative towels!! I still have the proof in the grout, I couldn’t get it off there, but I did successfully rescue the towels.

4. Jax found my jewelry box and "washed" each jewel with water. Water he stored in my jewelry box! Everything’s nice and sparkly now!

5. Jax found 3 shoes around the house and decided to clean them. He filled them with liquid soap and then I discovered him in the bathroom pouring in the water.

I guess the fact of the matter is I need not clean any longer. After all, I have a cook and a cleaner in Jax. It’s just his methods that are difficult to handle!

His preschool Valentine says it all………..
