About a year ago A heard about Locks of Love. She decided that she wanted to try to grow her hair out so that she could donate it. Then she found out that her kindergarten teacher, Mrs. A, had breast cancer AGAIN. Mrs. A is in her mid 30's and had a 7 month old at the time (this all happened during A's kindergarten year). A was sure this is what she wanted to do. Then, on Halloween we found out that B's sister, Aunt C (also in her mid 30's) has breast cancer...well this sealed the deal. A was growing her hair out to donate. So, yesterday, after waiting a LONG time for her hair to reach at least 10 inches to donate, we headed to Fantastic Sams (they sponsor Locks of Love, handle mailing the hair in for you, and the haircut if FREE), where A got her hair cut and sent it on to donate. Below are pictures of her process.
Before: her hair is so dark, but you can barely see how long it was...
Here are the ponytails they put in her hair to cut off...
First ponytail is gone...
All gone...
Getting is trimmed up...
All done...what a precious girl.
A, what you did was AWESOME! We are so proud that you chose to think of others. And you look adorable too! We are so proud of you! We love you! p.s. Aunt C and Mrs. A, this is for you! We love you and pray that you keep kicking cancer where is hurts!

I am proud of you, too, A! What a wonderful thing you've done for a little girl who has lost her hair to cancer treatment. Your short hair style is adorable!
Maggie donated hers last summer and immediately decided to start growing it out again to donate. I bet A will want to do the same thing! It is AMAZING how big and understanding their hearts are...
And I love, love, love the short hair! Adorable!
Wow! She went really short! She's virtually bald now! She hardly has any hair left! They didn't have to use the electric clippers for her back, did they? It's not good for a young girl to have too short hair! I bet she was nervous about the haircut! Was she? Is she going to keep it short or grow it out again? She looks cute with short hair, but I have to admit, it is very short! I'd love to see how the back turned out! Thank you!
Hello! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog.
Is it hard to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I'm thinking about creating my own but I'm not sure where to start. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Thank you
