New Do for Two

For those of you who know me in real life, or who have emailed with me extensively, you know I am not a Facebook person.  I am not a sharer of photos of my chickadees online...I cringe when other people do it and it is simply a consequence of what I do professionally.  This is even More True now that I have left Brooklyn and am living in a place where everyone knows everyone else and if people wanted to find my children it could be easily done.  [Some of you are probably thinking I am paranoid with a sinister mental slant...I hope so...it means you aren't exposed to the crap I see on a daily basis.  ;)]  This said, I love when Other Friends post pics of their kids because I am so far away and it is the only way I can keep up with what they are doing and how big they've grown!  I know - total double standard...

However, Miss E and I had the most amazing day yesterday I just had to document it in Instagram photos and write a post because I never want to forget!  Growing up I always accompanied my mom to the Salon and when needed had my hair cut as well...yesterday E and I had a girl's day and we went to the Salon, the Mall, and even Starbucks for a treat.  My little girl is growing up and I think she really needed a day with Mommy and no little sisters.  As she told me while walking into Starbucks "Daddy, L, and O are not here Mommy.  It is just us."

By the way, I totally had my hair CHOPPED.  And, I LOVE IT!  I feel like me again!  The whole having my hair down to my shoulder blades thing just wasn't cutting it in the MRL world.  Thank God the Funk is back.

As I type this my Miss E is sitting next to my computer playing with the wooden sewing machine Santa brought her for Christmas...she just paused in her pretend project with my scraps to inform me that she is making napkins for the table just like I do.

Be still my heart!

Love the new do, and one and one with your child is always good for the soul - for both of you.

I'm jealous of you ladies! I'm dying for a haircut but they just don't do/know my curly wavy hair here in Japan and the one cut I did get 6 months ago was the worst haircut I have ever had. It's only just grown out at last (way too short) but the lack of shaping they cut is meaning my hair is now all one length and looks wild and bushy >.< I can't wait to get it cut, very similar to your's in fact, next month when back in Australia!

I'm sure E will treasure this day with Mummy for a long time.

Sounds like a fun day! I agree, hair past my shoulders doesn't work for me as well.
