That sneaky thing thought she could shave her legs on her own and not be caught. The fact that she sliced her leg and took out a chunk of skin changed all that. As she came bawling to me from her bath with blood streaming down her legs she immediately alternated her sobs with "I am so sorry, Mommy."
Honey, I am sorry too....sorry that you are in such a hurry to grow up. Not on my watch sweetheart! As the scabs heal I had hoped that she would be deterred for a while, but not my Becca. This morning she announces that since razors hurt so much maybe she should just Nair her legs. I looked at her with my one raised eyebrow (it usually stops her in her tracks). "Mom you said no shaving, you didn't say no Nair"!
What a smartass!

Sounds exactly like a ten-year-old girl. Reminds me of my sister and my niece, actually. So eager to grow up, yet in a few years your daughter's going to be wishing she didn't have to deal with hairy legs and period cramps.
They just grow up so fast don't they?

Awww...that was a cute story! They do grow up too fast. My daughter just turned 5, and it seems like just yesterday she was a little baby.
I remember doing the exact same thing at her age! I remember being made fun of for having hairy legs (mine was blond too!) at school. Kids are so mean to each other when they are little.
