Hawley's New Hair Cut and Permanent Marker

Every morning the girls get into bed with me and wait until I wake up. Today was not any different except when I woke up I leaned over to get my glasses and I saw something that looked like string or hair or something on the floor. So I just looked at it trying to figure out what it was and why it was on my floor and then I looked at Hawley and saw what I have always dreaded--Hawley had cut her hair. I just looked at her and said "Oh. My. Gosh." She looked at me and with such excitement said "I cut my hair!" I couldn't believe it. I just kept saying 'Oh my gosh' while I went into the front room and there on the couch was all of her hair. I even started to cry a little. I was in shock and I knew that to try to fix it it would be completely short--all gone. I still can't believe that her beautiful hair is all gone. I guess one thing about it is now people will be able to tell them apart. The lucky thing about hair is that it grows back, although Hawley's hair is the slowest growing hair IN THE WORLD!! Well as I was cleaning up the hair (which isn't the easiest thing when it is everywhere) I called Jenna and we volunteered Joy to come and try to fix it. I can trim and do a few other things with hair, but there was no way that I was going to try to fix this myself. You can still see a little where she cut some cause it was so short, but Joy did a good job and I'm glad that she took a little bit of her Friday night to come and help out. Thanks Joy your the best!

If you thought that that was all that I had to write you must have been thinking of someone else, because I swear I have my work cut out for me. After all of the hair and stuff I decided to take a shower and left the girls watching cartoons. When I was dressed I decided to check on them and they were no where in sight. I went to the kitchen and there they were on the counter eating tootsie rolls and drawing all over the counter, microwave, and the cute letter holder Ali gave to me with PERMANENT BLACK MARKER. Luckily they didn't get it all over themselves. I tried to get it off with the magic eraser, but to no avail.


I'm not sure if I can handle anything else today. Lets just pray that that is the extent of the excitement for today.

OH MY GOSH!!!! I can't believe that she cut it that short!!!!! We will definately be able to tell them apart now! I have always been afraid that Oakley would do that, but thankfully she hasn't....yet.
Haha and like your day wasn't bad enough then they get out the marker! You have your hands full with them for sure!!!! Maybe you need mom to bring them down here for a week, so you can have a break!
I LOVE YOU!!

I think I am speechless - all I can say is Oh My! ! !

Maybe she was thinking "Grandma Brooks will be able to tell us apart if my hair is different"

try a dry erase marker over the top of it - it works on white-boards.
