Oh No

When my seven year old daughter walked up to me this evening, with Kasey trailing along behind her like usual, I could tell that something wasn't quite right. In response to my question she mumbled

"I had gum and it fell out on Kasey"

I stared at her uncomprehendingly for a minute. You had wh ..... oh no oh no oh no!

And sure enough there it was a large wad of electric green extra chewing gum matted into the hair behind Kasey's ear.

"I tried to get it out" the seven year old explains, clearly relieved that I wasn't screaming.

Ahhh, that explains the way its mashed in there I think to myself as I grab the scissors.

Kasey of course took it all in stride. It really can't take too long to grow back ... can it?
 
Ohhh noo........and baby oil or peanut butter would have worked it out.........if the pup would have been patient which would be understandable if Kasey wasn't.

What a mess..........but it will grow back. Can you trim the other ear to match without making a bigger mess?
 
Nah!! And your little girl will always remember how her wonderful Mommy didn't blow a gasket the time she gummed up the Sheltie. :lol:
 
OMG I don't mean to laugh, it isn't funny, but the vision of it. I am so happy your little ones got out of this one fine. Your a good mom.

This brought back memories of little boys and when they would say mommmmm in a very sad way, I thought OH NO, now what did they do?

Yes it will grow back!!!
 
She was so sad it was hard to be angry with her. It already seems more humorous then it did last night. Unless you're combing through Kasey's fur its not easy to notice.
 
We really hate it when our kids (human or fur) don't look their best!

I will never forget Ryan trimming Michelle's bangs for her the day before school pictures! He was 3.5 and she was 6. While I admire the control he had with those sharp scissors (no eyes losts or ear lobes removed), the 1/4" bangs looked ghastly! The big hole in the middle was no help either!
 
My stylist just had to do hair extensions on a three year old. She was going to be IN the wedding in three days, she butchered her hair so bad, mom and dad had to take action. I had to laugh it isn't funny, oh what kids won't think of. LOVE IT!
