A client of mine came to pick up sweets for her daughter’s birthday party on Friday. She looked a bit frazzled. I thought it was just related to party preparations, until she told me that her toddlers decided to play “hair salon” and give eachother a little trim while she tried to sneak in a shower. I felt her pain as I remember my brother giving me bangs when my mother was distracted.
The best I could think to do was tell her that everyone would look back and laugh at this episode in the near future. And when I remembered that I had made some felt crowns a few months back using this pattern, I offered them to for her little princesses…a bit to camouflage the new hair-do’s.
But even more to celebrate her birthday!
