Ramblings about my two favorite kids

Tuesday, December 14, 2010

I thought we had covered this.

Setting: Me in my office, checking email. Children in other room.

[Enter grinning children.]

Sam: How's my hair look?

Me: Why?

Sam: Because I cut it.

Me: Why did you do that?

Sam: So it would look shorter.

Me: Where did you cut it?

Sam: All over - see?

(Thankfully, all over was just along his neck line, which needed a trim anyway.)

(But then I turn to Sadie.)

Me: Did you cut your hair, too?

Sadie: Yep!

Me: Where?

Sadie (pointing to large chunk of shorter hair on the side): Right here!

Me: Never do that again. Remember, scissors are for paper. Not for hair.

Sam: Oh yeah - we forgot that. Are you angry?
