hairchops X 3

grace and her best friend, kylie, have been growing their hair out to donate to charity. their birthdays are only six days apart, and so they decided to get haircuts on may 10th which was a date in between both their birthdays.
here's grace holding her ponytail after i cut it.

here are the girls with their hairdresser (who is our good friend, angela).
angela's next appointment happened to be gracie and kylie's other close friend, colleen. we measured and she had 10 inches too, so colleen decided to cut her hair at the spur of the moment.
grace and kylie had already left for friendly's before colleen arrived at angela's; so colleen surprised them there with her new haircut. mailing their hair to locks of love. (wigs for kids recently changed their website to 12 inches, so we sent it to locks for love.
kylie's mom put a great montage together. you can see it here.

How brave and fun for them! I was petrified of cutting my hair so short but my parents made me do it anyway. (I chewed on it haha.) I wish we had thought to do something good like this!

quotables

"is that lily holding baby lily?" -lily's response when i showed her a picture of gracie holding her when lily was a baby.

"drama class is actually a lot of fun." -gracie (this is only humorous in that grace seemed surprised by how much she likes drama class. this from my child who we refer to as "a drama queen" when she is not around.)

"mom, you can go with my teacher and i'll stay home with japie and evan. daddy can go to work, and i'll be the mommy" -lily, in response to learning that she would be going to preschool next year instead of this year.

"mom, if you don't get rid of that smell soon, you're going to have to buy a new car." -gracie when it took me a couple of days to clean out my car after returning from a road trip.

"mommy, they have dress-ups for you!" -lily while walking by the prom dress section at macy's.

"i said the prayer "last"-erday." -lily's replacement word for "yesterday."
