I thought this day may never come...

Today I decided to try and braid Anna's hair and it actually worked. She was bald until about 18 months and has been slowly getting hair ever since. I used to glue (with Karo syrup) bows in her head when she was a baby. Once she started pulling those out we graduated to headbands and tiny clips. Most recently we put two half pig tails in her hair to keep it back. I thought braiding was still at least a year down the road but I was able to do two braids to keep all the little hairs up. Anna sat very still and the braids lasted a good 1/2 day before too many hairs slipped out and I put her wavy hair in two half pig tails again. My little girl finally has enough hair for braids!
