I've come to the conclusion

that I really hate having short hair. I don't understand why I do what I do to my hair sometimes. John is always the first one to remind me..."You aren't going to like it. You never like when you cut your hair."

My John-Bon is correct. I have tried a great many things with my hair. Whether it was the time that I decided to get a perm! (very 80's I know) Or the many, many times I have chopped of my wonderfully long length for something I always figured would be more practical. It seems as though it would be easier for life as a mother to not have much hair to get in the way. In my case, I have found it the exact opposite!!

I can't pull my hair back into a pony-tail without a few strands falling out of place. Diaper changing is a hassle. More than once I have ended up with rash ointment in my hair. Sleeping is rather annoying as well. I will wake up without the smooth hair style I went to bed with!

So, good friends, I am counting on you (and the frequent advice of my husband) to keep me from destroying my hair happiness!!

1) Me and my long locks 2) My new shorter do!
