Why I hate gum!

My kids love gum, but I don't! Kids and gum just don't work together at our house! Either the gum ends up in my carpet or stuck to someones face! I don't know what Carson was trying to do, but he decided to stick his gum on his eyes! It wasn't sugar free gum, so it really stuck to his skin, eyebrows, and eyelashes!
I wasn't sure what to do when I tried to rub it off with a washcloth, but none of it would come off. So I used the only thing I knew would get gum out...Peanut Butter! I would have tried "goof-off", but I was worried about using that around his eyes!
It took some effort, but we were finally able to get it all off! I hope he learned his lesson and won't do this again! (That's if he can get his hands on any gum!)

that is classic. That's one to show later in life. Like the yearbook his senior yr or at his wedding. We just love that kid...
