Today started out as most others.
Tired. But healthy and happy.
But do you know what's awesome about elementary schools? Head lice. It's totally awesome. Children learning to share, right?
Well, I noticed that little surprise pretty quick this morning while trying to give Layla some cute pigtails. Luckily, there was nothing alive. Strangely, there were only some grown out nits.
Either way though, we were attacking this problem head on! We treated her and me and I looked at EVERY single hair on her head. Now she is sleeping on the couch for the next couple nights. I will not tolerate their survival.
Even though through everything, we still haven't seen or had any evidence of a single actual louse, we are being as absolutely extra cautious as possible.
Needless to say, this mission took all day long. Layla was such a trooper sitting for hours and hours as I pulled and tugged at her hair all day. Never complained once, which is huge for the girl who can't handle her hair being brushed. She was happy enough to enough a lot of reading and iPhone time today.
Below is a picture from Lewis being curled up on the couch this afternoon and a picture from one of Layla's app games. Other than me slowly going through her hair, that about sums up our day in a nutshell.
