Miss Maddie Mae insisted on learning how to use scissors today. How long will it be until she cuts her own hair now? She did okay for day one, but one time when she was asking me to reposition her fingers yet again on the handle, before I finished, she got a little too excited. She knew her fingers were getting close to the proper position and quickly pushed the blade closed as she moved her hand and "cut" my finger. Luckily they were kid safety scissors. It hurt a bunch, but didn't draw any blood.
She had fun slicing up the edge of lots of papers. Now we'll have to be double, triple sure all scissors are out of sight and safely stowed unless we want her experimenting with every paper she sees for the next 6 months.
