Baby hair...

Is hair an issue in your house? Well, it is in mine.
Child #1 - age 5 - "NOOO! Don't EVER cut my hair. I want it to be LOOOOONG."
Child #2 - age 3 - Bangs were in her eyes. So she cut her OWN hair. Will take a few months to grow back.
Child #3 - age 1 - Please child #2 - Don't cut his hair. It is beautiful strawberry blond locks and curls that mom wants to cherish forever. I don't care if he can't see and is walking into everything. DON'T CUT HIS HAIR!
And that is how it goes at my house. Trying to keep the scissors out of child #'2's hands is an all-day affair. She is a do-it-yourself-er after all - a real problem solver. The other day, on the way to school, her hands were cold. So she took off her socks, put her shoes back on her bare feet, and put her socks on her hands.
Problem solved.
I am going to be reading a birth order book a friend recommended. But right now, I seem to have 3 of the same - very independent, very outspoken.
No wallflowers here.
Must be like mom and dad, no?
Minus the hair of course.
