Prove It

She: "Mom, can you make this gimp a part of my hair?"

Me: "Uh, sure. I'll try. You want me to braid it in there?"

She: "Yes."

Me: (Braids hair, awkwardly twists gimp into hair, hastily clasps all together with tiny hair clip. Says a small prayer that it'll stay there for five minutes.) "There you go. All done!"

She: "I want to see it."

Me: (Thinking about how shoddy my work is.) "It looks pretty! You have a lovely braid with gimp in it."

She: "Get your camera and take a picture of the back of my head and show me."

Me: (Relieved that LCD image on back of camera doesn't show details.) "See?"

She: "Good. Thanks."

Phew.
