She walked up to give me one and I noticed she now had bangs. I got on to her and told her we NEVER EVER cut our own hair. Only Mommy can cut her hair. She handed over the scissors and said she was sorry. I told her to get me a brush so I could fix her new bangs and make them look better.
She turned around to get the brush and I about had a heart attack. She had cut a big chunk out of the back too! First thing out of my mouth was "TOOT! YOU CUT THE BACK!" Like she didn't already know this. Then I said "Daddy's going to be so sad and cry!" That's when I think it hit her what she had done. Then, she was worried.
I had to cut about 6 inches off her hair to fix what she had done.
Before (but it was a little longer because this was the first day of school)

After (She looks really pale because she just did her make-up)
I told him she had punished herself by worrying all day and to please say something nice. He gave her that look of disappointment, told her to not do it again, and then gave her a big hug and told her how pretty she looked.
He's a pretty good Daddy. I guess we'll keep him.
Hope everyone has a good weekend. We are heading out to west Texas to go visit my mother-in-law. Wish me luck!

I feel your pain on the hair cut!!! Ellie did that once when she was a 3 years old but she did it a month before my sister's wedding. Needless to say the hairstylsit did some fancy work to cover up Ellie's bald spot.
I think her cut looks cute. Reminds me of Ellie's hair do. :)
I know it shouldn't be since she cut it herself and all...but it did turn out cute!

hi, I saw that YaYa had linked to your blog on her post today, so I thought I would come and check out your blog. I don't remember ever cutting my hair as a kid but I do remember cutting my tongue. I must have been a very weird kid. lol ;)

I always cut my kids' hair and they have recently started cutting their own hair. Not a good thing. Your daughter looks really cute.
Good luck on visiting your mother in law!
