"Mommy you got yours hair cut!"

This morning while Margaret was at her "school" (mother's moring out) I got my hair cut. I decided a while back that I wanted to donate my hair to Locks of Love. I was not sure if it was long enough, but this week I had become especially sick of it so I went today to see if we could make it work. At the longest point, the hairdresser cut off 12 inches! This was a little more than is even required! It is pretty short and is a quite a shock still to look in the mirror, but I keep reminding myself that some child with cancer will have a real wig from this hair that I was sick of! My goodness it is sad what we take for granted.
When I returned to pick up Margaret, she ran to me as she does and I picked her up and was talking to her teacher. She was sort of quiet and looking at me as I talked--trying to figure what was different I guess. All of a sudden she blurted out with a big smile and laugh "mommy you got yours hair cut!" She then announced "I yike your short hair, it like Guh-Guh's!" My mom really does not have short hair, but everything that is good or positive some how comes back to Guh-Guh these days. I think Marg is missing her a bit since she has to share her with new cousin Livia! We look forward to seeing Guh-Guh, Pumkin, and EO tomorrow!!
