I committed the cardinal sins of new mothers.
I cut Lucas's hair.
And I screamed after the snip of the bangs.
Shortly after the "incident" we went to Target. And this is when I realized the severity of the situation. I had made my son look like Lloyd from Dumb and Dumber with one snip of the scissors. Instant regret.
So what did I do? I called Farrin.
Ashley: I did something bad.
Farrin: What did you do?
Ashley: I cut Lucas's bangs.
Farrin: [silence......] you.did.WHAT?! No...
Ashley: [trying to rationalize actions....a string of incoherent panicky words......then texts Farrin above picture.]
Farrin: NO. Ash. How did you end up with scissors in your hand in the first place near your child's beautiful blonde hair?!
Ashley: But he was so still....and I thought I could....and.....
Farrin: Where are you? Are you in public? Are you in TARGET? Go home right now and put a hat on that child. NOW.
It's love, really...her honesty. And home we went, my head hung in shame.
Lesson. Learned.
