Mamma Mia....

I love the days that I unexpectedly get to be Domestic Supergoddess. Today was one of them -- and as my daughter just very recently finished Pre-K for the school year, it ended up being a "girl's day" of sorts which is an extra added bonus -- and a necessity for today, truth be told.

My Princess Petunia decided to give me an early Mother's Day gift -- or so she thought. Saturday, I took the kids to get their hair cut. After we'd done our days worth of errands, we were home relaxing -- each kid in their own room, while I was in my office practicing my presentation for tomorrow night's license hearing.

Quietly, my daughter enters the room and looks at me as she poses like she's a supermodel - and says (in a very "I'm so proud of myself" kind of way) "do you notice anything different about me?" (really emphasizing the word "different".) Suddenly, the horror dawned on me: she somehow got a hold of a pair of scissors and cut her hair.

None of the scissors in the house are readily accessible....this girl went into the laundry room, climbed the washer and dryer - to reach onto the shelving and grab an arts and crafts basket. Where she proceeded to find a pair of arts and craft scissors -- you know, the kind that aren't supposed to be sharp enough to cut yourself, or say -- your hair? Right.... uh-huh. Well, word to the wise -- they are, and they do.

Here's hoping that she doesn't go to beauty school.

I did take her today to the salon to get fixed as best as we could - and while she doesn't have a bob cut to her jaw - she does have a quasi mullet and a big ol' chunk of bald going on which hopefully will grow back sooner rather than later.

I have to be honest.... I almost cried.
