Scissors Enthusiast

My little girl Haana can be a scissors enthusiast. At school on some days they practice cutting paper in straight lines to develop fine motor skills. Some days she comes home and does the same too. 

Yesterday she came to her Daddy with a small clear plastic tube about an inch in length in her hand. She looked part sorry and part pleased with herself. I saw what she had in her hand and immediately knew... I said "You cut the sippy cup straw!!". The pleased-with-herself part immediately left and she now was both sorry and embarrassed. She started to cry.

I felt bad and felt like laughing all at once! I picked up the little baby; and used the excuse for hugs and kisses :)
