Locks of Love

As you already know we are VERY proud of both of our kids and all that they do. They are both filled with so much love and are just a joy to all whom come in contact with them.

Today Taylor has decided (on her own) to donate over ten inches of her hair to Locks of Love. This is a non profit organization who delivers hair pieces to those who don't have the money and are facing life threatening illnesses like cancer. There is a girl at her school who has lost her hair and Taylor has made it a point to become good friends with her. While others may make fun, Taylor has reached out to her and become a close and trusted friend.

We did not even know of this until recently when she asked if she could give some of her hair to this girl. She said she though it would make her feel better about herself and maybe not get teased.

While there is no guaranty that Taylor's hair will go to this girl (and probably wont) there is no doubt that it will benefit some child somewhere who is dealing with some kind of life threatening illness.

Giving this much hair to many seems like a pretty big deal, however to Taylor she would give it all if she could. There is no price that can be placed on charity and what it means to give.

We are so proud of her for wanting to do this and it will take place today. We will be sure to take many pictures and post them soon.

Make sure you leave a comment to Taylor and let her know that you too are so proud of what she is doing. It is a pretty grown up decision for just a 7 year old.
