Loving A Girl...

What can I say? She is a brilliant ray of sun for everyone she meets... She is always rocking some fabulous accessory. Yesterday we had a very serious, honest conversation that went something like this:

Mai - "Mama, I am stylish."

Me - "Mai, you are sooo stylish and you have awesome fashion sense!"

Mai - "I guess it skips a generation."

Yep! I totally LOVE this girl...

ooops...she did it again?!

My sweet lovely Mai...

So the other day I am combing her hair.

And until this day, she and I have had an agreement...

"if you want long hair, you have to let me comb it

without crying."

I absolutely hate fighting with my 6 year old about her hair. So, I'd say, if you are going to cry,

then we must need to cut it.

That was my manipulation and I was sticking to it.

Until my sweet Maisie informed me there has been a change of plan... it went something like this:

Mai: "Mama," eyes welling up, "I know what you are going to say."
she said with more drama than Kate Winslet in Titanic...

Me: "Well, Mai... you know the rule. And you look cute with short hair..."
trying to remain firm but positive.

Mai: "But Mama, I need to tell you something. There is a new plan..."
so confident and sure...

Me: "Oh, there is???"
now I am really intrigued...

Mai: "Yes... you can't cut my hair. Even if I cry."

Me: "Why is that honey?"
no longer combing but wondering...wondering...

Mai: "Because," she said, lip quivering,
"I am growing my hair for CANCER?!"

I LOVE THIS GIRL!!!
