Our 9-year-old Emily has been hemming and hawing about donating her hair to Locks of Love.
She finally decided this week that it was her hair that gives her headaches...so she'd donate it. We arrived at Fantastic Sams (a sponsor of LoL), and she said, "No way!" even though she had more than enough to donate and still have a decent hairstyle.
Well, I told her she had to have her hair cut (this was our second time to the salon); whether or not she wanted to donate it was up to her.
Sitting there for about 10 minutes, Emily saw a little girl with a wonderful hairdo she liked and decided that was what she wanted. Besides, she reasoned, some little girl or boy might need her hair like her Aunt Sandy and Mrs. Linsky did when they were going through chemo.
So for all the little girls and boys out there who need it: a gift from Emily, the girl with a new "do" she loves.

OH MY!!! What a beauty!! Wow Em, I am so proud of you and to still be a stunner after doing such a selfless thing... BONUS!
The haircut looks great! And some little girl or boy will reall appreciate the hair that Emily's donated.
