My brave girl!!!

When Maddison was 5, she donated her hair to Locks of Love for the first time. (I couldn't find those pictures) Then a couple of years later, she was ready to do it for the second time. This is in 2006. She has such a tender head that it hurts her to have long hair, so when it gets long enough to make into a wig (10 inches) she gets really excited to cut it. I have never made her wait to cut her hair, it's something she likes to do.



This donation was just under 11 inches!!!


Now here we are and again, the snarls in her hair are killing her. She wanted to cut her hair, but she wanted to wait till it was long enough to go into a wig. That's when I told her that if it's shorter than 10 inches, they'll sell it to help offset the cost of the wigs. When she heard that, she insisted that we call Angie RIGHT AWAY!!! So, yesterday was the big day!!! She was so excited!!! Donation #3 on the way!!!

Before........

8 inches of hair later.......


That's my friend, Angie (best hair girl in the west!!!) and her son Wyatt!!! The smile on Maddison's face says it all!!! Another satisfied customer!!!


(sorry the picture is blurry) Daddy doesn't like it much because she looks much older (her age)!!!She's feeling a little sassy and she can't pass by a mirror without looking in it an giggling!!! New hair and a good cause? What could be better? I'll be donating mine for the second time soon. I have 10 inches, I just don't know if I want mine as short as hers right now!!! Lookin cute Maddison!!!!

She looks darling! I can see why dad is nervous! What a special thing for her to want to do. Someone is doing a great job as a mom. :)
