NO Pain...NO GAIN

This week my daughter turned 10, double digits. For over a year now she has been asking if she too can get her eyebrows waxed. I told her, "You aren't even double digits. I think we should wait until you are at LEAST 10." So as her bday was coming up this week. She gently reminded me of our trip to the nail shop, they do waxing there too.

MooMoo went with us, as his older brothers were at football and unable to watch him. He sat quietly in the chair as his sister and I got our pedicures. When girlfriend was done, the woman asked if she could take her into the room to wax her eyebrows. I agreed. MooMoo JUMPED out of his seat. He said, "MOM...I'm gonna go stand by the door to listen to Airnana (that's how he says her name) scream!!! Ok mom???" The women in the shop were laughing and telling the woman waxing Girlfriend that her brother wanted to go in and watch, so she opened the door and let her in.

I laid my head back imagining how my sweet lil daughter would look when she came out. Then I heard a little voice scream, "OUCH!" MooMoo came running out of the room over to me. He was covering his mouth while belting out a laugh!!! He snickered, "Mom her body jumped up!" I was a little concerned that my daughter was going to come storming out and demand that she was done! Then what would we do with one eyebrow waxed?? MooMoo ran back into the room. Then I heard another scream, "OUCH!!!!" This time MooMoo was REALLY LAUGHING!! I couldn't help but giggle.

Girlfriend came out of the room and crawled up on my lap. She was being brave but I could tell she was still a little stunned from the waxing. She did look so pretty though! Not that she didn't look pretty before, but it was EVEN MORE defined. I asked, "are you ok?"

She replied, "It hurt mommy...but it was SO worth it! Do you like it?"

I smiled, "Yes love...you look BEAUTIFUL".

She has been so excited and telling everyone for her birthday she got her eyebrows waxed, then she adds, "NO PAIN.....NO GAIN". :)
