This is her picture from last summer. Now I know every mom says this, but my daughter is SOOO beautiful!
This shows how long her hair would have been. This braid will be donated.

Long-hair beauty to short-hair cutie
Abby has begged me to let her cut her hair for years. I finally told her when she turned 8, she could decide if she wanted it cut. Well, we were at the salon at 10:00 a.m. for her haircut.

But this summer her bangs were always hanging in her eyes, and she would throw her hair into a ponytail. (Here she is modeling a shirt Grandma Johnson sent for her birthday).
This morning we cut a 10-inch length and saved it in a braid so we could donate it to Locks of Love. They make wigs for children who can't grow hair or who have lost their hair. Her hair was down to her waist before. And now...
Here is the view from the back. She wanted the "flip" look. It is adorable (but I still cried at the salon when she cut it).

She is cute! She looks older. She is wearing a new outfit I made her for her birthday.
That's my girl! I will post more about her birthday after she opens presents and we have cake, etc. tonight. Love you Abby!

Wow! I can't believe how big your kids are getting! It seems like not very long ago Abby was just a little baby at my wedding. Now she's a little lady! Her hair *was* beautiful long, but it is cute short too. If she is like me she will wish to have it long again in a couple of weeks. Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, she looks sooo pretty with short hair though. But it is hard to see the length get cut off. But she did it for a good cause... the Locks of love and the sanity of the Mother!! I can't STAND my girls hair hanging in their eyes, but they refuse to let me put it in a ponytail! Come school, they will be following Abbys trail and cutting it all off too!! Love you!!
ReplyDeleteRosie wanted me to cut her hair too, and she looks cute and older, but I miss those long braids I used to do.
ReplyDeleteAbbie looks so much like you!
I love you.
