Also, writing over it with a dry-erase marker will take the permanent marker right off, depending on the surface.

[...] Pride I am sad that my five-year-old wrote on our door in permanent marker. She knows better. I’m proud that she is learning to write.

Maybe there is something wrong with you that something like this would make you sad. Children do that, and its OK, its also OK to show them that this is not the appropriate way to express themselves, that is, on the doors and walls. Now if you had said that she had drawn on every wall in the house despite your requesting her not to, OK, I understand that you would be sad, but hopefully directed in the right place, at yourself for having brought her up to be like that.

Our children are our mirror, or, at least, that is what I would like to think:

You could make it the door of progress. Stand her against it, and mark her height, do it again every 6 months.

When I was very young, I drew with pencil on a wooden model car my Grandfather had given me. “I <3 Mom."

She scolded me. I was disheartened.

This sounds so much like what my husband did! When our 2 year old started doodling on our walls, I was livid. But my husband had a completely different perspective and this is what he has to say…”First sign of Picasso influences. May be it’s just a proud parent, but the doodles don’t appear totally random to me. Taken with the fan (top-left corner), they could pass for Japanese characters…And they look rather nice on our living room wall too. ”
