Avery's hair has grown so much this year and was particularly unruly on top of her head. I decided to take her to a local salon and spend some of the "girls' haircut" money we had saved on a good cut for her. Little did I know that it would become a fun mommy-daughter date. The girl who cut Avery's hair was a delight and great with kids. Avery enjoyed every minute from the parafin wax on her hands, to the hair washing, to the cut and watching herself in the mirror. It was sweet to watch her delight in having such a special time with mommy. She was the center of attention for an hour and it brought her so much joy. The highlight of the time was when she got to choose straight or curly hair (she obviously choose curly, as most girls her age would) and had glitter sprayed into her hair. We walked out of the salon and she was beaming. She said to me, "I look like Emily" (our 4 year old next door neighbor with curly hair). She also said, "Cambria's going to be jealous." She was right.
