...and so is Sara's hair! Seriously, with our niece/cousin Baby Gracie in critical care, it certainly made us realize how precious and short life is.Why waste time fighting and arguing about something so trivial as hair? Sara hates washing and brushing her hair and wanted desperately to cut it off. We seem to be caught in the "girl culture" of our girls having to look a certain way, or to wear certain kinds of clothes. Frankly, I'm disgusted by pop culture and the image that our girls are supposed to attain.
If we are indeed going to give our girls the message that their beauty comes from the inside and the way they treat others (and the Earth), then we have to walk the walk, not just talk the talk.
In that spirit, we took Sara to get her hair chopped yesterday and she is thrilled. Plus, with a short cut, her gorgeous eyes really pop out! She'd love to hear a comment...please post!

Sarah - I bet your hair is so much easier to do now! Just in time for summer!!
Love, All the little Mayers!
Sara and Ali, this is Gracie's Dad(Tom). I just wanted to write and say thank you for all your doing for baby Gracie! What Great cousin's you are! Gracie is having a really good day today! Can't wait until we get to hold her.
By the way, I thought the dreads were cool & it was fun to see how they're made, but I think you both look beautiful with any hair style! Looking forward to seeing you this summer!
