Yesterday I was drying Callie’s hair before afternoon kindergarten, feeling pretty on top of things because I’d actually had her bathe even though it wasn’t Sunday, and I had ambitious plans to trim her fingernails during lunch. Callie asked if she could have pigtails, and I said sure. Then she said that she’s the only girl in her class who wears her hair hanging down. All the other girls have ponytails or barrettes or something, and all of them have flowers in their hair, too. Well, there is one other girl who doesn’t have flowers in her hair, but she does have it up, not hanging down.
I sent her off with adorable, if unadorned, pigtails and made a trip to Hobby Lobby. Nobody puts my baby in the corner. Not even me.





Um, I have hair flower envy.
I have boys. And one tomboy. Flower-free zone.
Gorgeous pics!
Cute! Can Callie teach Matilda about wanting her hair up in cute pony tails??
SO CUTE! You are talented. I cannot seem to figure out the flower thing.
Adorable photos. I just have boys, so I never had to learn to do these cute things. And my hair is super short too!
I love the pictures, you did a good job. I try to convince my girls they want that sort of stuff, but they prefer to do their own hair (a ponytail is as fancy as they get).
