A few needed changes this week.
Change #1
I think I win the award for blog wishy-washiness. I’m ALREADY ending my good news link up. I’ve sincerely enjoyed reading those posts and appreciated everyone who participated!
I plan to keep blogging this year, but I’m slowing down even more. Thus, I’ll be taking another week and half off starting tomorrow!
Change #2
Google Friend Connect will be leaving me before I get back, so I’m wondering if things will be very silent when I return. To keep in touch you can sign up for my feed or an email subscription. I will eat a celebratory bowl of ice cream in your honor if you do!
And most importantly,
Change #3
I got a new hairstyle–bangs!
Despite previous bang disasters, this time I loved how it turned out! I was anxious to show my family. As I walk inside, my six-year-old, Evie, just gapes at me speechless. Then, she yells to her sister, “Look at Mom!”
Seven-year-old Dani wasn’t speechless. “It’s weird. It’s soooo weird.”
My husband now walks into the room and pauses to stare at me, pensively.
“You like it?” I ask.
It looks much…straighter. And something else is different too. What is it?”
“I have bangs.”
“I’m not so sure about those.”
“I can’t change them back!”
“Oh, I mean it looks lovely.”
Dani pipes up again, “It’s just really weird.”
“It’s not very nice to say someone looks weird.”
I thought this would put an end to it. But! She starts crying!
Through her tears, “I really miss your old hair! It was so beautiful. Why did you have to change it?”
I pinned the offending bangs back with a barrette.
“Better?”
“Yes.” she whimpers.

Have a great week! I’ll see you all soon!
