love my hair and WW

if you have a chocolate latte, brown baby girl, you need to own this book {click the pic...it's a linky to amazon.com}. i'm shouting it from the roof tops because it is so stinking cute i can't stand it. we've had it for a few years, but now that jk is almost 4, she's really into the styles of her hair.

last night, she asked me if i could please use coconut oil grease on her hair and make pretty rows like the corn...proving that if you read your kids books, something sticks in their little heads...it's like word for word. crazy!

so anyway, i did a bit of front braiding and left the back "free" in a puff. jada calls her afro 'classy fluffy'...and ihave no idea where she got that one, but it's pretty right on!

i have to say, hair is super fun for girlies...it takes some time, but it's a lot of fun!

What a SWEETHEART!!! and I'm LOL@ Classy fluffy. What a funny girl.
LOVE it - my dear friend just adopted a sweet baby that she added to her family of ALL boys. I am highly recommending this book to her, she is already stressing for the hair do's she's going to be asked to do! (her boys all have super short hair, and a few years ago, they sported a mo-hawk!)

Classy Fluffy? haha *snort* Now THAT is super cute!

Did I ever tell you my friend Theressa had to explain to me what a weave was about 5 years ago? I grew up in Montana for criminy sake!

She also teased me that I would have "cornrow" instead of cornrows because my hair is so fine!

I love a little girl that knows what she wants done with her hair! It's great to have classy fluffy hair....much better than a bad hair day any day.

Her hair turned out darling! I still can't do a decent corn row to save my life. You have any tips?

Pretty darn adorable is what it is! :)
I'm gonna try to grab this book for some friends of mine at our church who have been paying somenoe to braid their adopted babies hair!
It looks like such a cute book, but that FACE is so cute!

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc
