Need a haircut? Elayna is available...

This morning the doorbell rang. It was our neighbor, Ibrahim, who cuts our grass, and keeps the yard trimmed for us. He had a lot to say, so Silas and I stood outside for nearly an hour with him. I know better than to leave Elayna unsupervised- EVER- but Ibrahim had a lot to say...

Returning to the house, I found little scraps of paper and markers spread all over the living room. The girls had been doing crafts. While cleaning up the scraps under the kids table I found a lock of long brown hair... then another... and another. I knew it wasn't mine, which left Kira.
I jumped up and asked the girls "WHAT HAPPENED!!!" They said Elayna did it. And they didn't come and get me WHY???? Kira now has a lovely short chunk on the side of her hair. Seeing as I'm scissors challenged I don't think I can improve on it much by trying to fix it. Maybe she'll just have to wear it in a ponytail for the next few months.

If Elayna was going to go scissor happy too bad I had Silas outside. He's the one that could use another haircut right now.




Here is what happened the last time I left Elayna unsupervised while painting to go change Silas' diaper. See I really should know better...

I realized that in Silas' birthday pictures I only showed him enjoying the ice cream. Lest you wonder, he was a big fan of the cake, too!
