Hair We Go Again

Almost every morning when Lily gets ready for school she asks for the impossible when it comes to her hairdo. She usually wants some fancy little do involving way more hair than she has. It all stems from the fact that the girls in her pre-k class have lots and lots of hair. She will say, mummy I want two pigtails at the front taken back to one in the back, just like Natalie number 1. Well Natalie number 1 has a mane of wavy hair right down her back not a scrat of stick straight hair barely touching her shoulders! This morning it was much more simple, mummy I want a ponytail. Gulp.....Lilypop, it's not long enough. But instead of saying that to her and breaking her little heart for the millionth time before 8am I gave it a shot and what do you know? It has grown long enough. My little scrat head actually has a pony tail. She was so chuffed she beamed all the way upstairs to show her daddy. And then she beamed all the way to school. It was so cute. It is a sad excuse for a ponytail but don't tell her that she was high on life today. It took many clips to keep the sides in place but that didnt matter one bit! Phew....she is finally running with the big girls.

You did a nice job with Lily's hair! There is certainly something to be said for shorter or not so thick hair, since it doesn't get as tangled. My dance recitals as a kid used to require an "upside down french braid" which meant you had to sit with your head between your knees while the braid was started from the base of your head and went up. Very painful that was.

I think you did a great job, and really Lily's hair is long, that is a pretty long ponytail. Before she knows it, it will be really long and she will be so proud.

Isn't it great how the smallest of things can be the Biggest of things to a child. You were most definitely the "mom of the day" for that auspicious ponytail! You Go!
