It's Just Hair

Why is it that for me, it is so hard to cut my daughter's hair off, or worse, have to cut it off because of an unfortunate incident that occurred with a pair of scissors? This was by no means the first time and heaven forbid, it won't be the last. Keith and I both have our suspicions that this time it was a conspiracy between Rach and Dustin. Whether is was, or not, Dustin did cut 2 sections of her hair, one on either side of her face. So, on Saturday Rachael finally got what she'd been asking me to let her do for a couple of months now, she chopped her hair off. And as she sat excitedly in the salon chair, Mom sat there trying to hold back her tears as more than 6 inches were wacked off of her beautiful, golden locks. What in the world is the matter with me? Anyway, here are some before and afters. I just keep trying to remember that her happiness is what's most important. After all, it's just hair, right?!?!?

Oh, how can you not cut her hair when she produces a smile like this after! I have a hard time cutting my hair too...there is just something about long hair!

She certainly had some gorgeous, thick, long hair. If Jade's was like that i wouldn't want to cut it either. I've been wanting to cut Jade's short but she won't let me.

You are not crazy for not wanting to cut her hair. I am attached to Wyatt's hair. I think he looks so cute and everybody keeps telling me to buzz it 'cause it's summer! And I say, nope!

It is so hard to let our kids grow up, and make their own decisions. Kinzie wants to keep her hair short and it would be nice to let it grow out some. But like you said it's just hair right
