We recently visited a family member's church and left the boys in child care. When picking up Tobin, I immediately noticed he had a red mark, around an inch and a half long, on his right cheek. I pointed it out to the nursery workers and asked what had happened. Neither could remember him getting hurt- which is more annoying than a child getting hurt in the first place. I headed outside to wait for the rest of our crew when I noticed two more of the same mark on his left check. And then another on his forehead. I tried not to completely flip out. Fortunately my family showed up before I marched back in to confront the church ladies. The family pack reacted with shock until Ellen pointed it out for what it was: lipstick. Tobin and been getting SUGAR all morning and had the lipstick marks to prove it!

Suz, I love it!!! Reading through the beginning I was feeling so bad for Tobin and stressed for you...until I got to the Lipstick part! So funny...and not surprising. He's a cutie :)
I would've belted each of those church nursery workers one...BEFORE they had a chance to explain about the lipstick. "Shoot first, ask questions later!"
