Hair and Macaroni & Cheese

That is what I saw in the sink when I walked by the bathroom Monday afternoon. Amelia didn't really want that for lunch, and they were goofing off quite a bit. So, although I was quite annoyed at the lunch remains in the bathroom sink, I was even more curious about the hair. There was quite a bit there. It didn't look like doll hair. In fact, it looked remarkably similar to real hair and I was perplexed trying to figure out whose head it would have come from. Both girls know better and have had repeated warnings about the consequence of such behavior, so they wouldn't have possibly...???? Would they...????

I walked to the front room.

"Whose hair is in the sink?"

Emma "I did NOT cut my hair."

Amelia nonchalantly says, "It's mine. I didn't cut very much."

"Let me see."

She pulled her hair from behind her ear to reveal chin length hair from the front clear to her ear, and then dropping dramatically to below her shoulders where it should be. I hadn't noticed before then because she had it so gracefully tucked behind her ear.

AARRRGGHHH!

Phone call to Adrienne...we have a hair emergency...

Bless her heart, she traveled up here yesterday afternoon, and did the best fix she could with what there was to work with. It was either straighten it up and let it grow, or sort of maybe blend it with lots of maintenance and regular fixing. We went for option 1. Here is the result.

Pretty cute, huh? I still think that she is a long-haired girl, though.

And Emma, of course, wanted her hair like Amelia, so she got hers cut short too. I think she looks darling. She can do short hair, in fact I like it better on her. Where her hair is so fine and thin, it looks better when it is short. She's my short-haired girl.

SO, thanks Adrienne, for responding to our little "hair emergency" here.
