O.K. - so I was hoping that we could get through the stage where toddlers cut their hair but I failed miserably in the attempt to skirt around this one.
Last night as I was cleaning something off the floor I noticed a clump of hair underneath the bench that sits at the end of our hallway. I thought it was strange and when I looked closer I realized that it could only be one person's and that was of an almost 4 year old little girl who when quickly glancing at her I suddenly realized that one ponytail was a bit shorter than the other. We questioned her about it and she begrudingly admitted to trimming it.
So, this morning after bath time I attempted to reconstruct her hair so that it wasn't that noticeable. I failed!! It is noticeable and I don't think there is anything myself or anyone else could have done about it. She will probably wearing the same hairdo to all public functions until it grows out. And of course this comes at a time when she will have her 4 year old, and Christmas pictures taken. I was trying to grow it out as long as I could before then. That just goes to show that I should not make plans of how I want things to be when dealing with a toddler. I had to laugh though!! Silly kid!!

The discovery of the missing hair
One ponytail lacking a few inches. She doesn't seem too upset does she?
The new hairdo - the one everyone will be seeing for awhile!

You are so positive about this. Problem found, solution already! Go Kara! She does look adorable with the new do!
she new her Aunt Teets cut her hair too...what a sweetie!
ha.
Sorry you didn't make it through the toddler years without incident. We had to deal with the self haircut, but thankfully she managed to clip underneath the outer layer. Kids always manage to do something to their look right before pictures! We usually end up with bruises or scrapes.
