Hair Issues

Abby got her hair cut last week, which she has been asking for a lot lately. Up until her haircut she would scream and cry at me in the bath NOT to pour the water over her head because "it's getting longer!!!! I don't want it to grow! I want medium hair, not short, not long." I tried many times to explain that the water was not making her hair grow. I explained that it made it long in the bath, but that when we dried it, it would get shorter with curls again... I even explained that her hair grows at night when she's sleeping. I think that's mostly accurate. Anyway--we ended up cutting it since that clearly was the only solution =) Don't worry--it's medium now, not long!

Parker has hair issues too. There has always been wailing and gnashing of teeth when it comes to Parker's hair cuts. So we do it fast and get it done. The weather has been nice the past couple of weeks so I've started trying to drive with the windows open in the van. And for the past couple of weeks, every time I roll them down on a fast road, Parker grabs the sides of his head and cries/yells "Moooommmyy! My haircut! My haircut! No window!" I'm not sure what he thinks it happening to his hair when the window is open, but it makes me laugh every time!
