the long and the short of it

Today Kestrel decided she absolutely had to cut her hair. She's been growing it for a while and it was really pretty long. Over the last year she went back and forth several times about cutting it or growing it longer. It was pretty hot today, and after school she decided she had to cut it today. After her gymnastics class we set out to get a haircut. The first place we went was busy but the next place could take us right away.

Hopefully I can still manage to put it up in a bun for her dance recital next month!

She looks pretty cute, and more grown up! She's excited to go to school and show off her hair. She thinks people aren't going to recognize her. She does look different now with her cropped hair and her missing two front teeth!
