Crayola...oh how I love you.

As a mom of two small children, there are obvious reasons why I love Crayola. Crayola has created little color gems that our kids use and play with for hours. They help give us priceless artwork that covers the refrigerator,( and if you live in our house) the table, doors and walls.

But the reason I love Crayola today is because somehow they just knew our kids ( or husbands) would unknowingly put a crayon in their pocket for one reason or another and that piece of clothing would make its way to the washer and subsequently to the dryer where the red crayon would melt and cover everything that was just newly laundered. 

So Crayola, today I thank you for being forward thinking enough to make your products washable. After a brief freak-out and nearly throwing all the clothes away I thought I might TRY to re-wash all the clothes to get rid of the red stains which laden every piece of clothing in the batch of laundry. 

Well, it worked. I am still in disbelief but I happily threw them in the dryer and vow ( again) to make sure I check all pockets before I do a load of laundry!
