I immediately went into the room and saw that Blair was under the covers. Kneeling beside the bed, I pulled back a Hello Kitty comforter to wake her. I noticed that long strands of hair were all over her pajamas. I thought that it must be itchy.
She must have cut it before Charley went to bed since she has a later bed-time. Blair was already under the covers and hiding her hair when Charley came into the room so she didn't notice what had happened.
"Who did this? I won't be mad." I said. She began to cry but told me it was her and she didn't know why she cut it.
"Because you are four." I replied. That seems to be the only explanation on why kids do the things they do - their age. Charley did the same thing, only she didn't have bangs and looked like Little Lord Fauntleroy. It was the cutest thing ever.
And even though we told Blair we'd rather not have her do this, she did a pretty good job.
The first look at her new do. Uh oh.
The second look at her new do and liking what she sees.

Blair after going to the salon which made her very excited.

Kitty from "That 70's show," anyone?

Oh, kids and laughter go hand in hand.
Daily doses of humor expected.
That's good, don't you think?

ReplyDeleteOMGosh...How cute is that ??? I think all kids like to experiment with "stylin" their own hair LOL
ReplyDeleteBTW,
Good move when you said,"I won't be mad" You're a very good Mom !
Thanks for the visit! Happy FF! :-)
ReplyDeleteHer hair looks great! My daughter did the same thing a couple of years ago! I think it's required for all girls (especially) to do this at some point in their early years! LOL
Hello! Thanks for following Dusty Us-- your blog is terrific and I'm following you too-- hope we don't bump noses! Love all your photos.
ReplyDeleteI remember my little brother shaving off his eyebrown the night before school pictures.
She's still soooo cute. She did a lot better job than I did when cut my hair at about age 3.
ReplyDeleteShe did do a good job :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I am seriously so impressed by how you responded and asked her what happened. I don't think I would have been so calm and cool about it. Good good for you

What precious photos and expressions! I'm your newest follower from New Friend Friday. I would be honored if you choose to do the same!
ReplyDeleteLOL, how cute! Thanks for visiting my blog! Thrifty Portland Mom
ReplyDeleteMy little middle cut her hair when she was 4 or 5. Her bangs, just right in the middle and nearly to the scalp. And the sides. My reaction wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. Yours was fantastic! And really, it will grow back, and she probably won't do that again. Her hair looks adorable.
ReplyDeleteMy granddaughters when they were three years old played hairdresser. Jenny cut Emma's bangs at "her shop"!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh you are such a sweet mommy...
ReplyDeleteI would have grounded her and FREAKED OUT...
But, I agree...she did a pretty good job of it!
Let me show this to my daughter. Maybe she'll yield and go to the salon after all. Oh wait, mine is a stubborn teenager. I'll give it a try anyway...
ReplyDeleteShe is such a cutie!! New haircut and all.... whey must kids do this?
ReplyDeleteAw, she is too cute!
ReplyDeleteFollowing from Friday follow. Have a great week!
Gosh, they all do it. And actually I love her new "do"!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I cute my sisters hair when we were about that age too.(sitting on the floor right behind my dads chair as he was watching football too!!) My sister had to get a pixie cute to salvage what I had done. My mom made me get one too as my 'punishment" To this day I can not get a pixie haircut!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! It does look like Kitty's hair. So sweet that you guys didn't make her feel bad about cutting her hair.
