So my daughter's friend from her first grade class got her haircut and donated her hair to locks of love. (See the website to find out more http://locksoflove.org/)
Emma thought it was such a neat idea to give your hair to someone who didn't have any, due to illness, that she wanted to get a haircut and donate her hair. She thought that she would get to see it made into a wig on the spot and was only slightly disappointed when that didn't happen.
My husband cut my hair a month ago and I wish I had thought to donate it because he probably cut off about a foot of hair. LOL requires at least 10 inches to donate. Maybe I will grow my hair out and donate too. That should only take me about a year or two.
Anyway, we are all really proud of her for wanting to help others. I think it is never too early to teach kids about service and thinking about the wants and needs of other people.
I think her hair looks really cute too. She says it is spunky and couldn't wait to show her teacher and friends her new haircut.

Are you going to post a picture? Please let sweet Emma know that we are very proud of her. She is a great example to us all.
I've tried posting pictures of her hair a bunch of times, but it has not worked! I will just email them to you.
