Evolution continues

As part of my continuous evolution and growth as a parent, I decided to let Reese help paint a small table and chairs that we have had since Noah was little. They needed a fun update and I thought it would be fun to get her involved. It didn't take long for me to regret that decision as she stepped in the paint lid, dipped her brush in two different colors up to her elbow and would not listen to any instructions. All this even with three grown people to help! I guess I'm expecting too much from an 18 month old - do you think?
Needless to say, the experience did not end up being fun for anyone.
