Do you as Mothers ever feel like nothing is sacred? I know that we give up "self" to become wives and mothers , but I'm talking about personal things. Every single day if Owen Spencer Franklin is alive , and awake , he will climb whatever he can to get to my makeup bag. This , for some reason , is the only thing that I can punish time and again over and it does NO good. I'm not sure what the attraction is , but he is willing to take whatever I have to dish out for one minute alone with the precious bag of unspeakable goodies! Well, this past week , Mom and I ( more Mom than I because of someone... Owen aka beast aka eyelash curler bandit) were deep cleaning the house. There I was happily dusting away ,and it hit me... Where is he? PANIC! After looking in the first most obvious place , the kitchen ( food duh ! He has to keep up his 36 lbs girlish figure!) , nope not there, STINKER! I ran to bathroom , there he was , for untold , countless minutes he had been sitting in the bathroom floor with my makeup bag wide open. After seeing that he had been digging out every single square of eyeshadow that Bekah brought me this spring ,I had one of those moments. The kind of moment where you realize that nothing you do at that moment could possibly been sane. So , I wiped his hands and face off , they were all shades of lovely shimmering colors, and sent him out to Grandmommy. UGH! Oh well , I guess at least this time he wasn't fully clothed in the bathtub , or greased up with hair gel or any of the other many things it has been before ! So this is a warning to all of you that will be seeing me in public anytime soon , it may not be pretty! Mom's also need at least 5 lbs of make up on before they leave the house to avoid looking like the walking dead:-D
P.S. Bakah , will you be with Urban Decay again this year ? If so, take a massive duffel bag with you:-D

I will be there again! Heck, the Controller told me she would send me stuff during the year, so if you had a favorite color that Owen is now wearing, let me know and I will have her get some more for me.
Ahhhh!!! What does your dear hubby say about this fascination with makeup that Owie seems to have? We need to get you a double zipper bag with a pad lock so even if he does get the bag, he can't get to the goodies!
And "Urban Decay"??? what the heck is that?
Urban Decay is one of my audit clients. They make cosmetics (mostly known for their eyeshadows) and have, hands-down, the WORST name for a cosmetic company I've ever heard.
I LOVE their eyeshadow!!! It is a terrible name but I am addicted:-D
One of every shade will do !!! J/K I'll go look and get back to you later.
