"Oh, Jo! Your one beauty!"

There is something I need to tell you....something...big! Okay, maybe not that big. But you can't tell! I don't know why! Never mind....Okay, you ready? Here it goes...
I cut my hair!! whew! glad that's out...













I thought it would be fun to try something different with my hair, (anytime I would be done with a haircut, I would come out and hear Ruth say, "It looks the same!" :) and what better thing to do than to share my hair? I was reluctant to actually cut off my dear locks, but I thought that maybe instead of keeping my brown dresses ("But I don't have any black dresses!") I would bless someone else that was less fortunate than me with it.


This was what it was:











And what I have now:




I really feel like Jo from Little Women now! :) It was something to get used to, taking 10 inches off, but it isn't too bad! It is a little easier for playing for the summer, almost like a boy. And then I thought of Jo again when Teddy was making her feel better by telling her that she could dress up like a boy and they could travel to all sorts of places.

NOTE: the short-hair pictures took a good while because Ruth was taking them.
Me: "Do it about right here."
R: "Okay...AHAhahahaha! Giggle...giggle..."
M: "Come on, Ruth!"
R: "Hehe...okay! okay!...AHAhahahaha!"
