Emily's Big Day




Yesterday Emily had a big day. She has been asking me for months to donate her beautiful long hair to locks of love. She heard about locks for love and really wanted to give her hair to someone else who needed it. I think she was also tired of me brushing her hair. I kept putting her off because I really did not want to cut it. (If any of you know my children as babies they are bald and take a long time to grow hair.) Emily has only had a trim to her hair but I finally let her cut it. We went to get her hair cut and she was soooo excited. She donated 16 inches to locks of love. Then Don and I decided that we would surprise her and let her get her ears pierced. O.K. it was me begging Don and him finally giving in=) So when we walked in the store she asked me what we were doing there. I girl at the store asked us if she could help us and I told her we were there to get Emily's ears pierced. Emmi was so excited but the first thing that came out of her mouth was "but Daddy said no!" She was so brave and looks so cute with her new "do" and her earrings. She is definitely a cute and caring girl. I know she will always remember the day and so will I.
