Pure Purple Perfection

We found out about 3 weeks ago that Kelsey's little body is not functioning well again. While on our last trip to Moab, we were with a friend of ours, MaryAnn (who sometimes cuts Kelsey's hair). MaryAnn always has something wild and fun going on with her hair. This time is was purple streaks in the long pieces of her A-Line haircut. Kelsey admired her hair for a long time before asking me if SHE could have purple in her hair. So, knowing that we were going to have to be staying home over the next weekend or two to follow her doctors orders, I made a deal with her. I told Kels that if she did everything she was supposed to do and took all the meds without complaining, I would let her get her purple. So, right after school last Monday afternoon, we went to the salon. Kelsey was so funny about it - she told MaryAnn that she didn't want to see in the mirror until it was completely dried and styled. After what she went through last weekend, the smile on her face when she saw her hair was worth it!
Life is just too short to worry about what others may think - especially of pretty hair with a FlAiR!
