When Mom got up this morning we hung out for a bit and then we (mom, G-pa, Jared and I) went shopping. We went to get some new flowers to plant because some of the flowers that were in the backyard died. We got some really pretty flowers and then we went to Trader
Joe's to get
some more goodies...the it was off to goodwill to pick up some neat containers to plant the flowers in. We had so much fun. Mom was really having a great day.
Here we are planting the flowers in the front yard.

Telling Jared why I punched holes in the bottom of this pot.

Mom using the
snuffelupagus to get some of the dirt off the front porch.
Jared's turn.

One eyed willy. While we were at goodwill, Jared was playing with a
Chinese umbrella and it got him in the eye.

I think G-ma was ready to ring his neck!

I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!!!

THIS ONE TOO!
Every time mom
scratched her head or ran her fingers
thru her hair she would pull big clumps of hair out. She got tired of it....So tonight after dinner we did this......................

Half way done..........

Now it's all gone. We might take a
bic to it or even marks electric razor. Me and G-ma were both crying while the shaving was going on. I took over for Mark while he took a phone call. G-pa video taped the whole thing.
Jilly took this one before she left.

I just have a couple of things to say. First of all I am taking what I said earlier about supporting Mom and the whole hair cutting thing in a different direction. I know there are other ways to support her like we are doing now. You said maybe when I see Mom with no hair and I have all my pretty thick long hair I might feel different. Well, I do. I hate looking at myself! I have decided to cut my hair. I know it's not going to change anything but it will make me feel better. Mom really doesn't want me to and of course neither does my husband but I have decided to go shorter. Love you sis.
It was so good to see you my Jilly. I'm sorry if what I said about the hair challenge made you feel bad after seeing mom. She is so cute with her bald head. Remember....It's just hair....right.
I love you.
I know it's just hair. I just feel very compelled to do it. Like a force is making the decision for me! I am looking forward to the change. I am probably going really short. My appt is on Tuesday afternoon so I'll be posting them soon. Speaking of hair, did you get your's fixed? I sure hope so. I feel bad about that. Love you.
