I walk into the kitchen to see Jovie with the scissors held to her hair! And when she saw me... what do you suppose she did? Cry? Say sorry? Run away? Look ashamed? Nope...
She worked FASTER!
As I came towards her she was frantically trying to get those scissors to close on a big clump of bangs!
Luckily in her flustered state she panicked and ended up losing all sense of coordination, therefore opening the scissors instead of closing them, thus not cutting off a huge clump of hair in the middle of her forehead... but I did find this:
I can not pinpoint exactly where that hair came from on her head, which is a small miracle since her hair is stick strait and even when she goes to get her hair cut you can see every snip of the scissors because her hair is so strait!
So... she got a pass this time!
The only thing that would devastate me more is if there comes a day that either Callie cuts her own hair or Jovie decides to cut it for her! And this is why: Callie's hair has to grow around and around before it grows down because of the curls. Therefore her hair is not even to her chin and she has never had a haircut. Her hair straitened actually goes half way down her back. So, to cut off what might look like an inch of curl is actually cutting off half a year's worth of growth. Jovie's hair grows FAST, therefore the situation would be remedied in a matter of months... with Callie it would be a matter of years!
So, my scissors are put away and hopefully I do not absentmindedly leave them on the counter again!
Her is the cutie culprit:

And who said mom's couldn't be everywhere all the time! GOOD SAVE!!
What. a. rascal. An adorable rascal though.
oh man i can't imagine if lily tool scissors to her hair.. it is so thin and still short that i don't know how it would ever recover. my sister in law and mother in law are trying to get me to cut her hair and i said no way... if some one were to mess up cutting it it would take a year to recover. anyway shes a cutie... good luck keeping her out of trouble.
I worry more about kids poking their eye out than loosing some hair.
