Hey, sorry, I didn't mean to ignore all the replies. I use my phone all the time for internet and it is really difficult to scroll from posts to the reply I am typing. Today, I am at the library. ANd wow, doesn't the full size keyboard seem weird!

I would ask the hairdresser, except that I don't have one. Believe it or not. DD does like nice hair, and that's why I feel bad that I can't do more. I could do the messy buns.... They are supposed to be tidy, but will definitely turn out messy! Her 'fringe' is now long enough to tuck behind her ears. THe Man wants her to have very short hair, because of the heat, but then I can't do anything at all with it. And when she did have a little bob cut (like Dora), she would always say she wanted it plaited, or in pony tails, or SOMETHING please Mum!

Marydean, I think you are right about the secret Mummy club. When you find out how to join, let me know!

I will look online for the suggested searches, they should turn something up useful!

I did try the hairspray, though I'm not sure if it was any better, lol. SHe's also taken to pulling her pony tail out by the end of the day. Yep, truly a brilliant idea to do on 37-ish degree days, on a bus!
