It Was Time

No more fancy Sugar 'N Spice hair styles for us!


And just when I was going to show you a cute new one. This little girl in my nursery class at Church always has the most beautiful hair. Look at all of it! For some reason my girls did not inherit my thick hair.

It all started a few weeks ago when Persistence began complaining that she wanted to cut her hair off. No more snarls? No more of her running around with mangy looking hair? Sounds great to me!



You can only stand pony tails so long before you get sick to death of them and it seems that we didn't have the energy for anything else lately. She took the plunge and loves her new hair cut.



So now we come to our two year old little trouble maker. Haven't I mentioned lately all the trouble she's been getting into? Maybe I thought if I didn't talk about it the problem would go away but that doesn't really seem to be working. She's still here!

I know some of you are shocked because you have never heard me say a bad word about her before but I'm telling you, she has crossed over to the bad side. In the sweetest way possible of course. Look what she did to her hair last week?


Remember that great advice I gave you to cut the elastics out of your daughter's hair? I'm not saying it wasn't great advice because I'm going to keep doing it but you knew and I knew that this was bound to happen. Let's not lie to ourselves. When you take a pair of scissors to a two year old's head every day, eventually she is going to try it for herself.

We're just lucky the damage wasn't worse than it was. She didn't cut the very front of it so it's not very noticeable. In fact I could have just left her hair like it was but she has been looking a little mangy lately too and I needed something easier these days.

"Uh oh. What did I get myself in to?"

"Much better!"

"Could I BE any spunkier?"

It looks very organized to me. And we can still do some fun things for Church if we want. That's one bonus of having fine hair. It looks great in short styles.

The funny thing is that Stranger has been bugging me to cut my hair off too and I think I would have if Margie had had time to fit me in. Yes people. I think it's time. The men in our family love their women in short hair. So how short should I go?

Although Margie had a good point. It's nice to be able to put your hair in a ponytail when you're throwing up.
