The Mama Trauma

The future of our family is in good hands.


I know this without a doubt, because these three rascals are going to be sooooo much better people than I am.


 Especially this one. It's been clear for years that God has special plans for her, and those plans revolve around her special "helper's heart."


About 6 months ago, she heard about Locks of Love and told me she wanted to donate her hair, because "I don't want a little girl with cancer like Grandma to be sad or made fun of it they lose their hair."


Yep, I cried this morning on her big day....but I did my crying before she was awake.


10 full inches of beautiful blonde hair that will make some little girl in need very happy indeed.


Thanks to Carly, she's thrilled with her new 'do and all set to go back to school.


I love that girl.

  3. Bless her heart! That is awesome. I couldn't believe how hard it was to watch long hair come off your child. We did that last year and now neither one shows signs of letting it grow back. Sigh..... it is easier to manage, but I miss it too!
