Be careful what you wish for
I was thinking today that I might not have anything interesting to update my blog with and wan't sure what my next post would be about. Well, be careful what you wish for. Today Claire CHOPPED OFF a ton of her hair. Yeah. I cried. It was a gruesome discovery. I had just gotten Tyler up from his nap and was changing him from a diaper to his big boy underpants. When we came back downstairs there she was, with a huge pile of her beautiful long brown hair surrounding her on the ground. At first I didn't realize what she had done. As soon as she looked up at me she asked "Mommy, do I look like a boy?" I don't think that was her intention, rather a realization after the fact of what she had done. I tried not to totally break down in tears so as not to scare the children but I couldn't help crying a little. You see, my Claire had such beautiful long hair and it takes FOREVER to grow. I have only ever cut her hair once! That was just to even it out, never to shorten it. So, we took her to a salon and a very nice lady fixed it the best way that she could. It reminds me of a 1960's type bob, or if you have ever seen the movie All Dogs Go To Heaven, the little girls hair cut in that movie. Alas, there is nothing to do but wait. Of course I think she is still cute, I mean she is our little Claire bear. And we will love her with short hair, long hair or no hair at all.
