The new hair do...

Once upon a time, just a few days ago, a little girl allowed her two older brothers to cut her hair. She had golden locks of curl that went past her shoulders. She decided one day that she did not want to have "purties" (a.k.a barrettes, hair elastics) in her hair anymore. Mom would daily brush her hair, if not twice a day, and with the tangles and hair accessories it was getting to be too much for this four year old. So, the five year had scissors from his kindergarten craft assignment and he suggested to the little sister that he should give her a hair cut. She kindly agreed. He nicely trimmed up the back side making it into a "bob" of some sort. Then the scissors went to the seven year old brother, who did not want to miss out on this extraordinary opportunity to get in on the hair fun. He decided that "bangs" were in order. Bangs much like his! At the completion of this hair appointment, which was given in the bathroom, they decided that mom should be surprised with this joyous event. Needless to say, the four year girl stood back apart from the brothers as they announced there was a surprise. The girl stated, "I don't think mom will like it."  Mom saw. Gasps inspired. Consequences given, apologies made, and forgiveness extended. It will grow, right?

4 Years old!

My sweet Hannah is 4 years old now. It happened on September 20th, but I realized that I hadn't put anything up on the blog.
