So proud of my girl…
So we were watching a video for the charity “Locks for Love”. If you have ‘virgin’ hair thats over 10 inches long…you can cut it off and send it in to be made into a wig for a sick child. Saylor wanted to do it for a while but had to grow her hair out longer. She hit the 10 inch mark a few months ago but I got sad at the idea of cutting it off. I know I know…it’s just hair no big deal! But it’s still my babies hair… She has had only one trim in her life. If you’re a mom you know that a first cut is sad for some reason… Anyways…so I’m a horrible person because I told her it wasn’t long enough when she asked to cut it…about 50 times.
She asked me the other day if we could go to the salon and I said no. “Mommy, there is a little girl waiting for my hair!” Aaaannnddd stab in my selfish heart:) “Get in the car quickly before I change my mind!!” Loaded up all the kids and forced my friend Stephan and mom to join me for moral support.
I didn’t know that most salons offer free cuts if you are donating your hair and also mail it in for you…so easy. My tiny was filled with pride and hopefully will inspire her friends to do the same!
With this short hair I call her the cartoon version of herself! Her extremely animated expressions are now not covered by a huge head of hair. She is hysterical!!! I’d dare to say it has even brought her out of her shell a little more!
Good girl Peachy!!!!
