We had a little accident at the house this morning. Kimberly was trying to open one of her bingo dobbers to color a picture, but the whole cap came off! Blue ink was all over her pj's, all over her skin, and all over my dining room carpet. Luckily, thanks to my quick reaction, we were able to save the pj's and prevent Kimberly from becoming a permanent Smurfette. She was so afraid she was going to be a "blue girl" forever. Unfourtunately, the carpet didn't fair so well. I tried foam carpet cleaner, water, oxyclean carpet cleaner, etc...and while it did remove the majority of the stain, as you can see from the pic it has come back to haunt us. Everytime I would spray the carpet cleaner and soak it up with a rag, it looked like the stain was completely gone. Only when it dried did we notice the blue start to reappear.

We had the pleasure of watching my niece Samantha perform in the middle school production of Seussical Jr. this afternoon. She was a bird girl in a fabulous red costume and also the dance captain of the show. It was amazing! The set, the actors, the singing, the costumes...everything was amazing!

Oh, the blue! Even the best Burber can't hide it, huh? I think I've just come to the realization that kids = mess! And I'm okay with that...it's B I wonder about!
You should try the Shamwow on that blue spot. According to the infomercial it can soak up anything. And we all know those infomercials are 100% true, right? :o)
