Do-It-Yourself Haircut 2002



Journaling reads "... or have your brother do it! Dan & I woke up to this surprise on Tues. Jan. 15, 2002! Michael had taken a scissor and Laura (must have) sat still for a "buzz cut" hair cut! Luckily she was uninjured! I was devastated! It was a MOPS morning, so Dan decided to stay home from work with the 2 culprits while Tasha and I went to MOPS. Anytime anyone asked how I was, I broke into tears and explained the hair cut. a hair-stylist at MOPS volunteered to fix Laura's hair as best as she could. When she saw Laura's hair though, she wasn't sure she could do much. She did well with what she had. After this, anytime someone asked me how it was going with 3 kids, I answered "Have you SEEN my daughter? THAT's how it's going!" This incident was a great learning experience for me. I learned about what is really important, and things can really be worse than a bad hair cut! I still HATE scissors and chewing gum -but have lived through the other DIY hair cuts since that day. It took 10 months for Laura's hair to grow back long enough to really look like a girl. Along the way, I got lots of compliments on Laura's "cute" hair cut (seriously!)! And darn it if she wasn't cute even with no hair!!"
