No matter what we do or say time is not slowing down.
The kiddos keep growing up and there is nothing we can do to stop them.
Last week Marie came to me and asked if she could get her hair cut shorter.
She was ready for a change.
This is something I had wanted for quite some time and I was so thankful she came up with the idea on her own.
Long hair is always getting snarls and tangles and no matter how much conditioner or spray we used it was always causing problems for us...especially in the morning when we never seem to have enough time to get out the door.
So we made an appointment and off we went.
She climbed right into the chair, asked for her hair to be at her shoulders, and smiled the whole time.

She is loving her new hair and so am I. It's much easier to care for and reduces our hair time in the morning as well as any sort of bickering over brushing or styling.
The only thing that is tough to handle is how much older it makes her look!
We also had her first parent-teacher conference last week.
Her teachers assured us she is doing very well with pre-writing and pre-reading skills. She plays well with other kiddos, is a little antsy on the carpet at carpet time, and is getting better at controlling her emotions. Andy & I just smiled at the last comment. Our girl has always been a bit emotional and dramatic since the day she was born but that is just who she is. At home that night, we discussed her success as well as areas to work on.
We are so proud of her and the big girl she is becoming.
