'Fantastic' Sam

After school today, I asked Sam if he wanted to finish his cutting and gluing activity that he started yesterday in school but didn't have time to finish. As he started to cut the last few shapes Livia asked if she could help him. So I got out more paper and drew some shapes for her to cut out too.



While they were cutting, Annie got a little fussy, so I took her upstairs, changed her diaper, fed her and laid her down for a nap.



I came back down to start lunch. As I was putting the dino nuggets on the baking sheet, Sam tells me, (all excited and proud of himself as he's speaking,) "Livia told me to cut her hair. So I did!"

I stopped. I looked at him and said, "Are you kidding?" I quickly went over to Livia as he smiled and told me he sure wasn't!

Sure enough...



Well, at least now we know that Sam will not make a fantastic hair stylist any time soon.



PS Since I'm fully aware that this could have been so much worse, I actually had to turn my head several times so they wouldn't see me laughing, since I was trying to show them I was upset so that they don't do it again. I guess we'll see how bad it is in a couple of hours when I need to comb her hair to go to the circus tonight....

Oh, no! You are dealing with this so much better than I would be. I can't believe you were chuckling to yourself. I think I would have been crying and ranting like a lunatic.

Good job for being "cool". Can't wait to see what you end up doing with it.

Good luck!
