Micah came running down the stairs and I saw an un-capped permanent marker and a huge smile. I clapped my hands on my cheeks and said, "NO, No,no, no,no,no,no,no,no,no,nonononono."
At my reaction, Micah dropped the marker, hid in the corner and started to cry. I asked him to show me where he colored and we went up to his room. He got the wall, the window, the blinds, the door, many toys and the crib. I started surveying the damage, and luckily it could have been worse.
The last few photos are after i tried to wash it off. The Mister Clean, Magic Eraser worked pretty good. The most maddening part is I was the one to leave the marker out.
Moral of the story- Put away all your markers, then your kids wont be able to use them.
