Jenny and the three older girls are at girlscout camp this weekend. So it is just me and Lauren. Things were fine, until I made the biggest mistake that could ever be committed. Think about it for a minute. Here is a hint: what would be the one thing Jenny would be most worried about when she is gone? RIGHT! Lauren’s hair! When putting her to bed, I took out her fortified-and-Jenny-installed hair bow, which meant that when I woke her up, hair was everywhere.
My first reaction was to panic. I hid for a bit too. I contemplated just staying in the house until Jenny came home Sunday, and then have Lauren in the Tub at that time. You are probably thinking why stay in the house though? Jenny has spies. That is all I am saying for fear of retribution.
I then experienced denial, thinking it was no big deal, until Lauren said, “my hair is all messy.” Crap.
So, I went for it. I used a comb, brush, hair dryer, hair spray, measuring tape, glue, rubber band, hair bow, and a tiny piece of duct tape. Here is the result.
Even though Lauren looks so cute, and this is clearly an exact replica of the original hair style Lauren had when Jenny left, I’ll bet anyone $10 that when Jenny see’s Lauren, her first comment will be “oh my, she looks like a homeless child!”
