Big Girl Haircut





My sweet, bald baby-girl has grown so quickly into a sweet, sassy toddler-girl. She has grown SOOO quickly but her hair has taken its sweet time. She is getting some new growth underneath and around her little face...it is curly right out of the bath & on humid days...it is dark brown just like Da-Da's with a few kisses from the sun. This hair of hers was growing a "duck tail" that was 3 times as long as the rest of her hair and it reminded me of my boy cousins that grew long "duck tails" back in the early 80's. No, no, no...We just couldn't have a "duck-tail"!!!
Adean's Salon in Pineville is located right next to a Holsom Bakery store so needless to say while we waited for our appointment we dropped into the bakery store for a bag of butter cookies & cold, chocolate milk. Adean has birds in her salon and Addy gave them kisses through the glass.
What a big girl!! Addy sat right up on the little booster seat, wore her smock and let Adean snip away...hello bangs, goodbye ducktail!!! Adean saved those snips and sealed them in a bag for us. I will never forget this day...so much to say about just a little haircut. Ohhhh how I love every last soft, wavy, brown hair on her head.
