Blattman Chronicles

This is the last shot we have of Annie and her piggies.  As of Sunday afternoon, they went, “Wee, wee all the way home.”…via Hudson.  He was so kind to free the piggies and her long sweeping bangs.  This last week Annie has been yelling at me to cut her piggies off every time I go to do her hair.  I should have seen it in the cards.  I didn’t think she would get this desperate.  We aren’t quite sure what happened, but Hudson did eventually fess up to being the barber who made it all happen.  He confided in Will and made him promise to not tell me.  Too bad I was walking down the stairs when the conversation was still in progress.  Obviously from Hudson’s reaction, I did not handle this mommy moment with grace and dignity.  Finding more patience and kindness is on my to do/to find list.

You can see where the piggies were and now where they are not!   So Monday morning found us out to get Annie’s hair fixed and Hudson grounded from the Wii for 3 days.  Of course his response to the consequence was, “I didn’t feel like playing it on Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday…only Thursday, Friday and Saturday.”  Wrong answer Hudson.  Had I been a vengeful mommy, I would have extended it to a week with those words. Let’s just say that Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday have proved to be much longer than he thought.
