I,ve been reading this group all afternoon and commenting on articles
more than usual but this group is one of the better ones and very
relavant (sp) to me, I got three all under 5 and no twins. 

Now about writing on the walls. The way I took care of this problem
was after Daniel- at the time of the crime: age 1.75- finished writing
I gave him a sponge that had a scrubber back and a spray bottle of 
409. I showed him how to clean and had him do it. I, of course, stood
by so he wouldn't spray his sister and he cleaned the entire wall.

It took a long time. Time that I did not have but that was the last time
he ever did it. After he went to bed I had to go back and really 
clean it up good but still, problem all gone.
