It would be the expensive atlas, wouldn't it?

Whilst I realise that the twin crimes of book defacement and brother defamation are serious issues, the actual ticking off I delivered upon discovery of this :


... was, frankly, lame and tame. This was because I was very close to giggling the whole time.

    I'm glad you got a photo so as to immortalize this for all time.

  2. Oh, excellent.

    Let me be very clear here. If any child ever writes on my Macquarie Dictionary they may end up missing a digit or three. If they write on my Times Atlas they may just lose two.

  3. Oh, I noticed that on Saturday night, and meant to mention it when you got home. I giggled too...and then decided I wouldn't want to be in Climber's shoes when you discovered it.

  4. Cute. Blasphemy to deface a book, but cute nonetheless.

  5. Writing on a book dements me.

    But if i had seen that i would have been giggling too!

  6. If that is the naughtiest thing that he can think to write about his brother then you better watch out!!

  7. Crap, that's funny!! Reminds me of when one of my kids wrote "James" on the bunk bed and , of course, blamed Jamie who couldn't write his own name yet. If he really had written it I would have been dancing down the street!

  8. Go Climber!

    I mean, um, very naughty boy Climber.

  9. Hysterical. Quite restrained though, I thought. At least he didn't write 'poo bum wee head'.

  10. Playing devil's advocate here... but why are books such precious things that we can't do a bit of graffiti-ing on them? I don't get it.

  11. Had a bit of a giggle myself. Abby's word of choice at the moment is "Poop". She adds it to the lyrics of twinkle, twinkle little star (poop).... and then giggles and giggles.

    Love that Kirsty. You have to have a laugh when they unwittingly incriminate themselves!

  12. The original pest and menace, with a sense of humour! Too hard not to giggle. I'm also smiling just imagining your lame, tame reprimand!

  13. It would be "...is a poo-poo head" in our household.

    Of course, if it were to occur on the atlas, or any other book for that matter, there would be serious words!

  15. Think how much more valuable---to your family at least---he has made that book! So much more interesting than an un-"defaced" volume. Also when grown up Mr. Cherub gets too big for his britches, you can always drag out the family atlas for an ego check!
