Buffalo Hair Do

God must have known our daughters were going to need senses of humor, thick skin, moderate (they are women after all) patience and an extra dose of humor.  Why?  God knew their brothers were coming along and they'd need those traits and a whole lot more.  He also granted our girls the complete and total understanding of retribution and it's implementation.

Sydney is currently outnumbered on the girl to boy ratio.  Rachel and Alison headed back to their places so she's a one sister target for the Filipino Fire that are Lucas and Eli.

This morning her ego took a direct hit as she was drying her hair and getting ready for the day.  First to take a swing at his sister was Eli with the statement of, "Wow, Syd your hair looks like an alien's head!"  Ouch.  Sydney having dealt with the deadly duo since day one, ignored and continued on. 

Then came brother two, Lucas, "Oh!  Man!  Syd!  Your hair it looks like a buffalo hair!"  Okay.  (In their defense, Sydney does have a lot of hair and during the drying process...well it's large.)  After that there was a whole lot of screeching and tattling.  Mainly from the boys.  I think the repercussions to their statements were justified and appropriate.....someday the Filipino Fire will learn it doesn't pay to mess with any member of their sister tribe.
