My DS went to stay with his grandparents this weekend for the first time, he's nearly two.
My DS hasn't hadn't had his haircut until New Year's Eve, and it was quite long. I decided on New Year's Eve to tidy up the back a bit,but left the rest. His fringe was just above the eyebrows and so I left it and thought I'd do it another time.
My MIL has been saying that she wants to cut his hair for ages, so that's partly why I did it before he went to her's for the weekend, because I wanted to cut it first. She was obviously a bit put out when we arrived because I'd cut it rather than her, but that's my perogative so I just breezily ignored her disgruntlement.
When we arrived back after the weekend the first thing I noticed is that his fringe was shorter. About an inch shorter. I asked her right out if she'd cut it and she denied it and said "ofcourse I'd never cut it without your permission, you must have done it when you cut it!"
I didn't ofcourse. Now I'm not particularly bothered, and didn't push the issue as I don't want to argue with ds's grannie, but really WTF? I have spoken to DH about it though, and he says he's upset that I'm saying his mum is a liar. Am I being unreasonable continuing to insist that she is?
