Swirl Girl

SOOC:

For every season, there is a purpose... a time to dance!
I'm not sure if this post processing works or not, but I kind of liked it. I caught K as she danced and swirled around the yard, high on feeling beautiful and loved. It's great to be a little girl.

First haircut

Today was the day. Big sister's communion pics were to be taken, and Easter is next weekend. TIME for the first haircut. After trying to convince the kids to go to a BEAUTY saloon, I decided to cut it myself. After all, I've been cutting their bangs :)

So, this is S's "before" shot. Her hair is almost to the stool (When totally pulled straight, it's past her heiny).
During (thanks, dad). S kept herself busy with my ipod, listening to a little Jimmy Buffet while trying to pretend her hair isn't getting shorter.

She was convinced she's ugly. Before getting up, mind you. Just because it's hard to be four and to lose your long hair. She still isn't convinced it's great, but we are.
