The Bedazzler


Every Wednesday at the Powerhouse is craft day with Rhonda (which is a very important detail!! WE LOVE RHONDA!!!). The kids know it and expect it and are usually quite enjoyable for the two hours we craft together.
A few weeks ago Nathan asked if I had the bedazzler. Apparently this is a real thing- one of those as seen on tv things. I told him there was no need for a bedazzler and that I indeed was the bedazzler. So, I set to work and used the most trusty craft tool yet, the hot glue gun, and bedazzled his white gloves with gold and silver sequins. Following the bedazzling Bafo and Nathan practiced Micheal Jackson moves in the kitchen. Just another day at the house..
Fast forward a week and Nathan had asked me everyday since then to continue with bedazzling and do the other side. Though I am the bedazzler I refused to do the otherside partly because my fingerprints had been burned off. So, he declared he would do it. He got out the glue gun and breathed down my neck until I would sit next to him and give him the adult supervision he was requesting (exact words my friends, this kid is a trip!!). So, he set to work bedazzling the other side of the gloves. Not too long and some of the best things ever came out of his mouth...
"Jessi (because he says my name 50 bazillion times a day), I am BEAST at the glue gun"
"Jessi, you have been replaced and now I AM THE BEDAZZLER"
I count this year a complete success as Nathan has achieved a love for the glue gun and accomlished the pretentious title of the Bedazzler.
Thank-you craft day Wednesdays and Nathan for being THE bedazzler, just love that kid!
