We went to Great Clips where they will cut the hair for free if you are donating to Locks of Love. Skylar was a little nervous getting in the chair. She's donated before, but it's always a little nerve-wracking to get that much hair cut off in one big cut!
Measuring to see if her hair is long enough to donate! It was definitely long enough!
There it goes!!
Awww....she looks so cute!!
Here she is, holding her hair!
That's a lot of hair, Uncle Ed!!
Skylar was just beaming afterwards. She was so glad to do this in memory of her little brother. She loves him so much and has really struggled with his loss. She puts on a good face, but it's been hard to see her struggle in private. She is just so beautiful....inside and out!! I'm so thankful for the sweet, tender-hearted children that I have been blessed to have here. I'm thankful that they love their little brothers and love to do things for them and remember them. They find such joy in keeping them a part of our family and I love that they want to. I'm thankful to see their little testimonies of the Plan of Salvation growing and know that is one of the blessings we've had from losing these babies. These sweet babies of ours were given to us for a reason and I'm thankful to have them too. I have great kids!!

What a wonderful young lady! It is so nice to read such heartwarming stories such as this. I am very sorry for your loss, I can only imagine what you and your family are going through. But then to have such a sweet young daughter who is willing to share that with others. I have read two other blogs in the past few days that remind me what a wonderful world we live in. Sometimes all we hear about is the hate and distruction and to hear a nice story is well just that - nice! I don't know you and your family - saw your story on FB the Great Clips page - please tell your daughter Thank You!
