olive's first haircut




the day finally came 
i was offering noah and hazel school haircuts and olive said she'd like one
she pointed to her head and said she wanted it that short...like boy short
i told her i'd do it as short as her chin and she was happy
her hair was so, so long
since birth it's been long
but i feel relieved for her
it was a bit of a burden for her to have to have her hair combed
and done to look presentable
and most of the time it was just ratty
it always had food in it and was close to getting in the potty
she is sooo happy to have it short
i have always let noah and hazel choose their hair length
i feel kind of bad i hadn't let olive get a cut sooner
it's just hair

She is so so pretty. And her hair cut looks adorable. I agree with donna, long or short, she looks so cute. And you did a great job too.
