Considering Emily has never had her hair much longer than past her ears...this emergency call isn't so rare. Well today she called again...but this time it was a different phone call. She's going to do it...she's more adult now, more patient. She owns her own business for goodness sake. This time it's really going to happen...she's going
to grow her hair out. And she's blogging about it. Maybe this will hold her accountable and keep her from the temptation of an impulsive visit to her stylist. This is like so many times in life when we need people around us to cheer for us, to beat sanity into our crazy thoughts. So here's to you, my sister, may your hair grow long and prosper.Check out her blog here.
If you've known Aaron and I for awhile, you can probably recall some of our different hair phases. When we left for China we vowed not to cut our hair for the year...well that year turned into about 3 or 4. Aaron got dreads and my hair got very long. Then at one point we decided we
should "grow up"
and become more professional so off came the dreads and 8 inches of my thin hair went to locks of love. Now I think we are reverting back to those days once more. Aaron is growing his curly locks out and I recently got fed up with getting hair cuts that I can't stand, so I think I am joining my husband and sister in the journey of hair growth. And one final thought on hair. One of the main reasons I married Aaron was for his hair. I'm not going to lie. I was really hoping to break my family's terrible hair gene pool. I figured that with his dark, thick, curly hair our future children would have a better hair life than my mother, sister and I ever did...
Well, Montana, all I can say is...I tried.

You're the best big sister ever! It would be one thing if the emergency calls were just about hair (which happens often enough), but your drama filled little sis calls for about every kind of "emergency". You are patient and loving even though you know I crazy. For that I love you!!
Yes Kate, let it grow. I too cut my hair this last summer (10 inches to be exact) and now my hair is growing out, it is at a very annoying stage... thank God for hair ties. Good luck to all three of you.
