I Don't Know...

So I come home from a meeting to find a clump of hair in the sink and a matching one in the shower. I ask Mike where it came from...he said "Em said it came out when she took out her hair clip." Being the mother I am, I know that this hair is too straight and unknotted to come from a clip or hairband...so the inquisition began. (If you are seeing ANY similarity between this and the great hair cutting escapade of April '08 - you are a smart parent).

I begin with the obvious...
"Emily - did you cut your hair again?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."

Now I have to think - what is in the shower that could cut hair...my razor!

"Em - did you shave your head?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Did you shave any part of your body?"

LONG SILENCE

"Did you shave ANY part of your body?"
She touches her legs.

"Your legs? (a nod) Anywhere else? (a nod) Where?"
She then touches her belly.

"Your belly? (a nod) You shaved your legs and belly (incredulity at this point). Did you shave anywhere else?"
She then touches her arms.

"You shaved your arms? (a nod) Okay...you shaved your legs, belly and arms (disbelief at this point because I didn't realize she was a hairy ape!).

"Did you shave any where else(with a hint of frustration)?"
She touches her face. "Really? Have you seen Mom EVER shave her face?"

"Okay...you shaved your legs, your belly, your arms and you face...did you try to shave your head?" A nod...

"WHY????"

"I don't knooooooow."
