I have to pull Kennedy's hair into a ponytail or braid each night at bedtime. If I don't, she wakes up with a mess on the back of her head. She comes out of her room looking like she did her hair with a firecracker.
So, last night as I was brushing her hair, the brush gets stuck in a segment of her hair.
Me - "Did you get something in your hair?"
K - "I was eating it."
Me - "You were eating your hair?"
Not until then did it occur to me what it could have been. I smelled the hair.
Me - "You got gum in your hair, didn't you?"
Without missing a beat, she said, "No, it's sticky tack from Rhiannon's room."
Me - "Sticky tack that smells just like Spearmint Extra....the exact same kind of gum that Daddy brought home from offshore for y'all?"
K - "Yes."
Me - "Do you think I'm stupid?"
Pause.
Me - "Nevermind, don't answer that."
I could see it in her bright little eyes...she was going to say, "Yes."

OMG...don't you HATE it when you can see the "yes I think your stupid" look in their eyes.
So did you hae to cut it out???
Luckily, I didn't have to cut it...she had managed to "eat" it all out of her hair. I'm still perplexed over it.
