So when I found some scissors, cut up paper, and markers in their room, I was a little annoyed that they had taken those items into their room as they know art work activities are to occur only in the playroom.\u00a0 And when I found a little snippet of hair on the ground in the room while I was cleaning it up solo, I assumed that they cut their dolls hair (not that I thought that was okay).\u00a0 Fast forward a day later\u2026I was looking at Emerson and noticed that her hair was looking as though she had bangs.\u00a0 I took a closer look and realized the hair I found was HER hair!\u00a0 I asked Emerson about it and with a straight face over and over she told me she didn\u2019t do it.\u00a0 She tried to blame it on Avery a few times so I asked Avery about it and it was clear to me that Avery had no involvement.\u00a0 We took a break from discussing it again until later in the evening.\u00a0 I told her we would talk just the two of us after she put on her pajamas.\u00a0 Instead of going to her room to put on her pajamas, she came and found me in the laundry room and asked if we could talk now.\u00a0 I got down to her level and said of course. It was then that she admitted what she had done.\u00a0 When I asked her why she lied, she said she was afraid of getting in trouble.\u00a0 I told her that I was proud of her for telling me the truth now and that she was being brave and I appreciated that.\u00a0 I also made it clear that she is never to cut her own hair again.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Here is a picture of Emerson (fake smile) after she cut her bangs. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3273\" src=\"http:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Emerson-Hair-Cut-10.16-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"emerson-hair-cut-10-16\" width=\"584\" height=\"779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Emerson-Hair-Cut-10.16-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Emerson-Hair-Cut-10.16-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Emerson-Hair-Cut-10.16.jpg 1224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Here is a picture of me at age 4 AFTER my mom took me to the salon to fix my long hair that I had cut myself!<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3275\" src=\"http:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"stefanie-haircut-age-4\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/themaddlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stefanie-Haircut-age-4.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Justin keeps telling me she is my child\u2026you think?!?!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Avery and Emerson LOVE art work!
