The Beginning of Something New

So Jaycee is all set up for her first haircut. Its sort of a big "to do" seeing how we waited 2 years where with Darren we only waited till his first birthday. And for those of you that remember Darren's hair pre-first haircut, he was definitely due! He was what we like to call Kramer :)
With Jaycee, I purposely schedule the appointment about a month out, giving me plenty of time to change my mind. Well, we are only a week away now. Her curls are her little trademark and I am so nervous to cut them. It will also give us a pretty good idea of just how long her hair was. So rather than wait to see until after its gone, we straightened her hair. Now, I have attempted this before and wow! It was so many different lengths and as soft as goose feathers. Needless to say, I sprayed some water on it and like magic, the curls reappeared.
This time was a little different. There wasn't much static cling in her hair and it was much longer and cooperative. I couldn't believe it! She was an entirely different little girl! Not to mention it really accentuated her chubby cheeks. Michael couldn't stop telling her beautiful it was. She just played with it and flipped it around and looked at herself in the mirror. Apparently, we weren't the only ones that didn't recognize her! hahaha. Rather than spray it back to curls again, I let her sleep in it. What would you know? Her entire head of hair was back to curls literally in the blink of an eye. Even though I thought her hair was totally cute straight, I cant bring myself to try anymore. I love the curls that she was born with and meant to have.
