Pulling My Hair Out to Entertain the Twins

This past Wednesday, I ventured out alone with Eliana and Esther. I had to investigate getting them visitor's visas to enter the US for our furlough. Praise God we have a double stroller and the girls sit quite well in that! It helps to keep them constrained and some what occupied while we wait for something. Well, on this particular day, I had brought and tried through out the wait...Baby keys, Monster Truck match box cars, snacks, sippy cups, and stickers. Well, after all the normal things were exhausted and I STILL stood waiting for an answer about visas, Eliana happened to get a hair stuck to her sticker. She had SO MUCH fun dangling her sticker that when that sticker and the hair, which was really just a fuzzy strand of something or other, "died," she began to fuss. That gave me the BRILLIANT idea of pulling my own hair out, sticking it to one sticker and then laying another sticker on top of the other. She then had a "magic" star that dangled quite a distance. When Esther saw Eliana's "magic star," she wanted one too. SOOOOO, yes I pulled out more hair. "Pulling my hair out" with these girls has never been this easy!!!
