it was just a matter of time ...

it was inevitable ...
the progress was so slow at first
but it gradually picked up speed
and what was once deemed shaggy and cute
became decidedly scruffy & unkempt


as so, the fun with scissors began ...

i knew it was going to go well
as soon as i saw the cape

i had no idea that squirt bottles would be involved !

but one can only smile at
their own evolving reflection for so long

eventually i got a little bored
i imagine this is why dad rarely visits the barber

but it was all worth it in the end

i must admit that there is some sadness in the realization
that my quest to resurrect the mullet
ended as quickly as it began

but on the plus side ...
i was starting to get tired of the whole
"what a cute little girl" thing
