She cut her own hair!


Well, I think it's a right of passage at the Mann house for our kids to cut their own hair. Before church Sunday, I trimmed Ainsley's bangs and then I put the hair scissors back in a box, not realizing little eyes were still watching me. Before we went to bed Sunday night I found Ainsley in the bathroom with her hand on her forehead with a scared looked on her face. I asked her what was going on and she dashed out of the bathroom and went straight to her bed. Those of you that know Ainsley know that if she voluntarily gets in bed, something's up. I asked her what she did and she wouldn't move her hand. I knew immediately. She had cut her bangs, again for me. She left about an inch of hair right in front. It's hard to see in this picture because I pulled some of her hair down and cut a few more bands to cover it. You can really tell when she's just running around playing.

I took the whole thing amazingly well. Not at all the way I took it when Katelyn did it. Katelyn did the same thing when she was three, but she cut off her little sprig of a ponytail on the top of her head. Katelyn's hair took forever to come in to begin with, so I was really upset. I was pregnant with Carson, at the time, and Joe came home from work and we were both crying when he walked in.
