Nail polish remover is apparently quite gentle on sensitive skin... or so the paediatrician tried to inform my mum over the telephone when my brother (at about 2) painted his penis with bright pink nail polish! She wasn't convinced so took him to the hospital for said polish to be removed!!!
My daughter's fingernail polish experiments were limited to the ends of her fingers and toes (approximating the nails) and all over furniture and floors.
Acetone does work - as does putting fnp completely out of reach and off the radar for the next 20 years!! (okay, I didn't learn that lesson well enought to stick to it, but the threat was real!)
Go F....better to varnish your foot than Mum's bedspread! While the colour is cute, it will never be as smashing as Mum's foot. When are you gals coming to visit. Or should I come to visit you? I am actually semi planning a training down your way so can I come and stay with you all?
Debby - Your vote has been counted. Miss F is very appreciative as she is now allowed to have a pink foot until the polish wears off!
M+B - ROFL! That story cracks me up!! Wait till I tell Miss V and God Father.. LOL!
Jeanie - This WAS one of the bottles of polish that I'd hidden! Only trouble with that is I hide them and forget where I put them so the girls have to help me look.
Megan - We are already making boogie sushi and chocolate cake in anticipation of your arrival. KEWL! And lol @ "smashing foot". Ha ha ha.
Rhubarb - Glad to know we're in good company :)
Kate - Yes, it was all 100% for my benefit, I'm sure! Good it wasn't the floors (or the dogs) though, I guess.
I'll bet Miss F will always be compassionate and "share one's pain" if she can--to lighten the load. I love your girls. You, too! Greatness all 'round. :-}
I'm Alison, and my three most important little people are Miss J, twin sister of Miss F - both 4 going on 14 and big sisters to Miss V - who is an impressive 3 years old and anything but the 'baby' of the family.
No doubt I will find it impossible to stick to one theme for this blog, so here is some background info that will hopefully add some sense the inevitable random posts...
The man of our family, M, is no longer with us in body though he is ever present in mind and spirit.
I used to be active in the performing arts 'scene' - Less so now as my girls take centre stage. Creativity is still a huge part of life, though being directed by three toddlers the art form is somewhat different.
I'm always passionate about dramatic arts and creative expression, especially as a tool for inclusion... Bringing me to my next point of focus - Awareness and acceptance of people with diverse abilities.
I work with people of all abilities doing anything from playing drama games, making music, talking, teaching, learning and always having fun.
I guess one theme I CAN stick to is that last point - having fun. Living a joyful life is the greatest success, I feel.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. My vote would let her be just like mom until te nail polish is wears off, and she's not, anymore.
Good try, Miss F...lol

It washes off pretty quick, a few days of normal baths and showers, I promise. This something I am well versed in :)
aww what a sensitive caring little sole... I always find nail polish comes off skin easier than it does off nails or hard wood floors.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Too funny, too cute.

Tiff - It was very funny when she came hopping into the lounge room!
PW - If nail polish is involved, Miss F is more than willing to do her share.
Thanks for your love and your lovely comments :)
