Just Like This


Adelaide loves to play games on the computer. I'm amazed at how she can navigate different sites and find exactly what she's looking for. One of her favorites is the Barbie website. She discovered that she can cut, color, and style hair for Barbie. She and I have been talking about getting our haircut for quite a while and we finally made the plunge last Wednesday. Her hair had gotten so long and mine was needing a little bit of TLC. I asked her how she wanted her hair cut when she quickly ran over to the computer and said, "Here mom, I'll show you." I walked over with her as she clicked away through the website until she found what she was looking for. "Just like this mom," is what she said. I am completely amazed at how smart she is and how she even knew how to find the haircut she wanted!

We printed off her picture which she decided needed to be colored blue, and took it with us to Haley at Images Salon. I will never forget how proud she was to have picked her own haircut and how excited she was to show Haley her picture. I decided the haircut was tasteful enough on the condition that Haley could cut it so I wouldn't always have to flip it out:) It turned out really cute (I'll have to post a pic of her later).

However, she was a little disappointed when we left the salon and her hair was still brown and not blue.
