It is almost a right of passage for young girls, as they move from Mummy deciding on what hairstyle I will have, to controlling one's own destiny. For the past six months I have been avoiding the request for lopping of the curls!
It was recently that several others over heard the pleas, and then made a comment to me about who really loves the curls the most! OK, it is me, the parent with the dead straight hair, I love the tiny blonde ringlets that I managed to create over on the child! So it was with a heavy heart that we headed to the hair dresser.
As the first snip went, I asked "Maddy, can you hear that? It is the sound of Mummy's heart breaking!" There was raucous laughter from the chair, so it appears that my comments were well received!
I look forward to the few years time when the stage returns that OMG my image is everything, I must have my locks back. Of course that stage also comes with other issues, but I shall await the return.
