We had a very busy day this past Saturday: Brynn got her first big haircut; we said good-bye to our cat, Fatty; we attended Kite Day at a nearby park; went to a friend's birthday party in Hawley, and drove to Grandpa and Grandma Froemming's to celebrate Mother's Day. It was a great weekend, but a little sad when Fatty left.
Mother Hen Brynn was trying hard to comfort me when she noticed I was a little sad and missing Fatty. That conversation went something like this:
Brynn (noticing some tears coming from Mom): "Mom, are you sad?"
Me: "Yes, a little bit. But, it's okay."
Brynn: "Why?"
Brynn: "Why?"
Me: "Well, I just miss Fatty."
Brynn (patting my am): "Oh...do you want some ice cream?"
Ha ha. You could tell she wanted to be able to do something for me, but she couldn't quite figure out what. Sounded like a good solution to me.
She did well for her haircut. They let her watch Dora and she got a sucker, so at that point, she really didn't care what they did to her. I asked her on our way to the appointment if she was excited and she said "no, I'm not excited, but I'm going." Ha. But, she seems to like how it turned out. I miss the look of her long hair, but it has been a lot easier to deal with now that it's short.
