I must say girls are all alike. I had hair bast my butt as a 5 year old, and my mom kept it braided in one long braid. I guess I was tired of long hair, because I got the scissors and wen under the kitchen table and cut my braid off up next to my head. I haven't had long hair since that time. Great story, any truth to it? Shirley

Hahaha... kids are capable of being so destructively inventive. How creative of you to realize that hair would make a great bird's nest - birds think so too. This is such a charming story and captures mother's reaction really well.

I love your story, Katharine. Especially the line, "Her incredulity morphed rather quickly into anger, if I remember correctly." I, for one, think your hair would have made a beautiful bird's nest.

A delightful writing and visual. It took me back. I was 5 1/2 and my sis 3 when we went to be in an orphange for five years. We weren't orphans though. I;m sure there were many other misadventures. Blessings, Barbara

    No, we weren't. Seperated on two diff dorms, not even meals until yrs later, but we did get to go home sometimes, not. often. We were actually lucky there I realized later. Bless you.
