Long hair + scissors = new haircut for Avery

Avery has been doing a lot of cutting lately at school and has been wanting to perfect her skills at home. The other day, I drew some shapes for her to cut out while I was cutting fabric and Riley was playing with blocks. A few minutes late I spotted a few pieces of hair on the carpet. I looked up and quickly realized Avery had decided to cut her own hair. I was in shock and this took her by surprise and she burst out crying. She just kept repeating, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" A friend of mine came over that evening and fixed it up into a cute bob. Avery was beaming the whole time.


She had been asking for a haircut for a while now, but it has taken so long for it to grow that we were resistant to give in, but she is so happy with it that I feel bad for letting it go this long. Oh well...she can't stop looking in the mirror and shaking her new locks. She is such a cutie!
