An Early Start to a Life of Service

Once in a while our kids will do something so amazing that you just have to stand back in awe. Almost two years ago Stefanie had a friend who was growing her hair out for locks of love, a charity in which you can donate your hair to make wigs for people who are losing their hair from cancer treatments or for various other medial conditions. It's not as easy as you might think. They need a minimum of 10" in order for them to accept you hair. Stefanie has Very thick coarse hair and so the morning brushing of this hair at times was taxing on her because she has a very sensitive head. We've taken a few trips to the salon over the months hopeing that it would be long enough but it just hasn't been until this last weekend




Last night we shipped her hair off to Locks of Love. I'm just so proud of her willingness to do something bigger than herself. As you can see she feels pretty good about it too. What an amazing daughter I've been blessed with.
