Sally’s put some make-up on,
but she is only three,
and that’s the reason for the blob
of lipstick on her knee.
That’s the reason that you see
mascara on her nose,
and the reason she now has
those multi-coloured toes.
The little brush to polish nails
sure made dear Sally smile,
so now her cheeks are cherry red —
she loves her brand new style!
Yes, Sally put some make-up on
cause she is all alone,
which will surprise her mother
when her mom gets off the phone.
The Lonely Meatball 
Sally’s mom hung up the phone
She had finished speaking
And when she took a look at Sally
She set in to shrieking!

Poor Sally–and poor Sally’s mom!
When I was 4, I somehow got hold of some scissors and gave myself a haircut–a very short and decidedly one-sided affair. I don’t remember this, but my mom said it gave her quite a scare–more because of the scissors than anything else.

Wow! I can imagine that would upset your mother. I expect there are a great many people out with with pandemic hair who are thinking of giving themselves haircuts these days.

Our hairdresser just opened again. Hubby and I were almost her first customers! Our stylist, Susan, said she was surprised how little she had to do to fix my bangs – I guess I’m getting better at self hair cuts.

That’s excellent! I get a haircut on Wednesday, and I can hardly wait.

Great story! I can see it in my mind and imagine the cuteness of it all. I can also see the look of shock on the mother’s face, then she smiles and chuckles.
