I'm Trying...

Those who know me well, know that I'm not a very good "girl mom".  I might even add to that that Paige is not a very good "girly girl".  She must take after me-- once again.  Let me explain.  Paige has beautiful long hair but she rarely lets me do anything with it.  She just wants it "plain down".  Brushing it has become a chore.  I've never let this bother me too much because I really wouldn't know what to do with it.  But now that Paige will be starting kindergarten, I would like her teacher to be able to see her face.  A cute face at that.  So I've found a couple of websites that are aimed at helping me be a little better at this.  I'll list them in my sidebar--I'll be referencing them more often (if I have my way).  Below is a picture of my very first french-braid.  I now know why they call it a french-braid.  I was wishing I knew french so the bad words I wanted to say the kids wouldn't understand.  
(Kim, I knew you'd appreciate this.)
