Flash back Fridays: Unexpected hair cut

You always hear about kids cutting their own hair when their young and for some reason I thought this would never happen to my kids, boy was I wrong. Cecily has had a hard time growing out her mullet, I think it comes with this age because I have heard of others complain about the same thing with their daughters. So, her bangs were just below her eyebrows and I was having her grow them out and would put them in a little ponytail and pin them back with a flower. Well, I had the kids do Valentine activities and Pierce was cutting hearts out and when I went out to the garage to grab some more glue (gone for maybe 10 seconds) Pierce had snipped Cecily’s bangs that were gathered in a little ponytail. I wanted to DIE!

I was so shocked I just stood there with my mouth open just staring! I didn’t know whether to laugh or get mad but I was feeling a little of both. I had to let Pierce know that it wasn’t ok to do that so he lost his privilege to swim at his cousins birthday party that night. (He fell A.P.A.R.T. when everyone was swimming but him) but, it was a true Love & Logic moment for him, I’m glad I did that. So, her bangs were no longer below her eyebrows, they were about an inch or less above her scalp. Lovely.

Now, they are finally back to where they were and hopefully we don’t run into another incident like that again. I have since locked up all scissors for this purpose.


Vous avez toujours entendu parler de jeunes se couper les cheveux propres lorsque leurs jeunes et pour quelque raison que j'ai pensé que ce ne serait jamais arriver à mes enfants, je me trompais. Eh bien, j'ai eu les enfants faire des activités Valentine et Pierce coupe des cœur et quand je suis sorti du garage pour prendre un peu plus de colle (peut-être parti pour 10 secondes) Pierce avait coupé c’est cheveux. Je voulais mourir!

J'ai été tellement choqué que je suis resté là avec ma bouche ouverte juste regarder a cest cheveux! Je ne savais pas s'il fallait rire ou se fâcher, mais je me sentais un peu des deux. J'ai dû laisser Pierce savoir qu'il n'était pas autorisé à le faire que si il a perdu son privilège de nager à sa fête d'anniversaire cousins ce soir-là. (Il est tombé en morceaux quand tout le monde de nager mais lui Ainsi, sa frange n'étaient plus ci-dessous ses sourcils, ils étaient environ un pouce ou moins-dessus de son cuir chevelu.

Maintenant, ils sont enfin de retour à l'endroit où ils étaient et nous espérons que nous ne courons pas dans un autre incident comme ça. Depuis, j'ai enfermé tous les ciseaux à cet effet.
