Photos ~ Many Photos

I'm really disappointed in the photos that I had taken of Mia. Really disappointed. They are grainy and try as I might I cannot get the color better without screwing up the photos. I even emailed a couple to a friend and she couldn't do it either. Her opinion was that the camera was set on a low light setting and there wasn't much she knew to do. If any of you think you could enhance these, please let me know. But... Mia and Kim are so cute, grainy or not, I'll still cherish the pictures.

She Cut Her Hair

Yeah, you read that right. Little Miss cut her hair. Last Saturday I took Mia to get her hair ever so slightly trimmed. It had grown down between her shoulder blades and it was getting so easy to style. I wanted to shape it up a bit because this Saturday she's having professional pictures made and she's going to model in a fashion show. So Sunday I walk into the dining room where I had all the homeschool supplies in piles on the table, including a pair of scissors, and what do I see on the floor? Half a pigtail. In a chunk. On the floor.

I asked Mia, "What did you do?" She replied, "I cut my hair." "Where is your hair, Mia?" "It's over there, on the floor."

Like no big deal what-so-ever. I was livid. Livid. I had to just walk away and call a friend.

She got in trouble for playing with scissors without asking. But, as far as cutting her hair, I guess she thought since she'd gotten it cut the day before that she'd see if she could do it too. We've now thoroughly reiterated that she is NOT to cut her hair.

I took her the next day back to get FOUR inches cut off to even it out, and it still didn't make it even. In order to absolutely even it out I'd haveto cut it short to the base of her neck! So, we're improvising now and I'm hoping it doesn't show in the pictures or the fashion show. I think I'll just braid it, but that wasn't the original plan.

I don't have a camera handy, but I'll post pics of the fashion show as soon as I can.
