What is one-half inch per month?

1) Do not try to cut your toddler's bangs yourself.

2) If you do try to cut your toddler's bangs yourself, do not do it while she is standing or sitting up, when she is free to turn/twist/look away at the worst possible moment.

3) If you do it while she is standing or sitting up--thereby cutting the bangs unevenly--do not try to even them out by cutting off a little more.

4) If you do try to even them out by cutting off a little more, try not to obsess about the fact that her beautiful blond bangs now fall--still uneven--in the smack middle of her forehead only a few weeks before your first ever family picture session.

Well, at least I'm no longer obsessing about the holiday party. Exactly how fast does hair grow anyway?

Way to go with the silver lining!

I betcha you're in good shape again within two weeks. And if not, a fashionable hat can cover for family pictures.
