Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

For the last few months Lindy has been growing her hair out with the goal of donating some of her AMAZING hair to Locks of Love. Today was the big day.

This is Lindy before:

And after:

She is much braver than I am...it was a little difficult for me to watch those scissors in action.

You look beautiful, Lindy. Your mom is so proud. xoxo

Big thanks to Kim (our beloved hairdresser). We love you...and sorry (again) about the chaos I introduced into your home. And your neighborhood.

Ah, on sunday we were just commenting on Lindy's lovely locks. That is amazing. She looks so grown up with short hair!!!

I love it! Her hair was getting so stinkin' long! It is beautiful either way, but the short does make her look grown up. Go Lindy!

I don't think my last comment saved. Rats. This post made me cry! What a beautiful girl with such an amazing heart and soul. Go Lindy!!! Ashlyn and I donated a while back, and it is one of the most memorable experiences. If you go to the website you can print off a certificate for Lindy to put in her scrap book. She looks adorable. And what a gift. I lost my best friend as well as another friend to leukemia as a teen. Having seen what they go through, and the difference in their self-conscious level after they receive their wig -- it means absolutely the WORLD to them. I think I'm going to cry again. What a big girl you are, Lindy.

Lindy: I love your new hair. What did all the kids at school say? Is it hard to keep your new short hair out of your face?

Lucky you- your hair grows so fast you'll have it long again by Christmas!

She looks so much older. And absolutely adorable! Way to go Lindy. I've donated too. It's a fun thing to do.
