so after much drama this weekend Jade got her hair cut. It's super cute. But oh, the drama. Actually I'm glad she cares about her appearance, it's better than the yucky hair of some of her peers who have yet to care, but I digress. On Saturday Jade came and asked if she could get her hair cut. I said, what do you want? and she tells me she wants some layers in it. I said, well we better go to someone who cuts hair then, so it will look nice.(because I can't do that) and she says who. So we discussed our options. But then Jade couldn't get a hold of them on the phone, and wanted it done NOW so she asked me to cut it into a bob. I said no. That she reallly needed to go to someone who knew what was up.
Well, then she starts crying and telling me that she just wants it chopped off and that I ALWAYS (don't you just love the use of this word in kids!) make her wait. So again we went over this. Lots of Drama and crying over the weekend, but Finally on Sunday we make an appointment for her to get her hair cut on Monday. Monday comes and what do you know, I made the appointment for the busiest time of day and I forgot about it until Jade came home and said we gotta go to the appointment. SO I throw the kids in the car and take Jade to Ashley's house. Poor Ashley, I drive up, walk Jade in, Tell Ashley to give her whatever she wants and that Jade can walk home. I'm a little bit falling apart. I've got crying kids in the car, and Brynlee needed picked up from band, and all I can think about is getting a vacation with a VAT of Diet Coke. And yes, I said a VAT for that is what I would need for some R and R. Jade came home and it really did turn out ok. Ashley was amazing (as usual) (Ashley, I'm sorry I was so unorganized and Brynlee wants her hair cut now, so will you email me your phone number?) anyway, Jade's hair is cute and what do you know, She's a happy little girl now, she was pleasant all evening and thrilled to do whatever I asked. She was even willing to work on her Faith in GOd, I think I need to get her hair done more often! I guess, she's not to far off, That's always how I feel when I get my hair done!! anyway, take a few looks at her new coif!!
I love it that it is cute and trendy and appropriate for a 10 year old.!!
Good Work -Ashley and Jade, (Ashley she was so thrilled you used Hair spray AND a curling iron) That's ok, she is using it now and always asking me to do it for her! :)
They love this. It is a bit massive but they love it anyway! The bed at the bottom of the picture is a trundle bed, it will push under the entire unit. There is a desk that pulls out, it is above the 2 drawers that are on the left side. (you have to push the bed in to use the desk) The dresser is handy as well. It is nice to get rid of one of the dressers in this room and use this unit! The little door that is open on the right side is the door to the cubby room in the back. It goes all the way through to the other side. 
This is the view of the 'playroom'. The kids are in this constantly.
