Playing in the Grass

If you look at this video real close, you might notice a few important things.  You can see my sister looking to see where I am.  You will also notice that she has short hair, too.  And you’ll see her whispering something in my ear that was upsetting because part of it is edited out. I think she said, “I’m going to crush you.” Kristen did not have her hair cut because my mother wanted us both to have ridiculous hair.  Only I wasn’t allowed to have long, pretty hair.  My sister’s hair was cut because she got gum in it. My mom cut off her hair as sort of a punishment for getting gum in it and she screamed and cried.  I was very little so you might wonder how I can remember such detail. The fact is, I can’t.  But our older step-sister was there and witnessed all of it.  By “all of it” I mean all of it, not just the hair cuts.
