Hair Removal Karma


Apparently one of my kids felt their eyebrows looked too much like this guy's. Did you notice the use of the past tense there? Because this child has subsequently taken the matter into their own hands, so to speak.

It's not too noticeable unless you're looking for it, but once you are - it looks almost as if Tinkerbell had taken a teeny tiny weed whacker and gone after the outer half of both eyebrows. Oh yah, they look so much better now. Every single one of my children is an independent soul and they don't really think they need any assistance from me. (Tweezers could have done a much nicer job, but no! that would not have been independent enough).

Kinda reminds me of the time I decided to shave my legs and didn't have a clue what I was doing. Turns out you don't have to press very hard for the hair (and some skin) to come off. I had my sister keep watch and thought I could be all sneaky-like and have silky smooth legs without anybody (read: mom) being the wiser. But moms have a way of finding out these things - especially when the blunt ends of the blond hair regrowth starts glinting off all kinds of reflection in the sunlight.

Karma is the real deal my friends.

Pop on over to Lara's place, she's talking about her brand new baby (I love birth stories)!
