"Not-So-Fun" Fun
Yesterday was a not-so-fun day with Shrinky Dinks. Here's how it went down:
Mason: Mom, can I do Shrinky Dinks.
Me: No, don't you want to do something else? (Please!?!?!?)
Mason: No, I want to do Shrinky Dinks.
Me: Okay. Hold on.
Mason: Mom, can I do Shrinky Dinks now?
Me: Yes, Mason, hold on.
Mason: Mom ... now?
Me: Mason. Yes! Now! (gritting teeth)
Mason: Mom, can you draw it for me?
Mason: Mom, can you color it for me?
Mason: Mom, can you cut it for me?
Me: Mason, I'm not the one doing the Shrinky Dinks. I've already told you that I did not want to do Shrinky Dinks today.
Mason: Mom, can you draw this for me?
Yes, it was a long day. I drew, colored, cut, and baked the Shrinky Dinks. All day long we did Shrinky Dinks. Every time I sat down, he wanted to do another one. And another one. And another one. (You get the point.) The above photo is only a few of the ones I could find at the end of the day.
He eventually started to trace and color his own. Not soon enough.
