it's turned out to be a rough day. i took a shower this morning and great globs of hair just kept coming out. any time i would comb or even just touch it, more would come out. when sid woke up, i asked him to go ahead and shave it. i cried while he wasdoing it and when i got my first look in the mirror. i'm ok right now, i have scarf on. it is really just a shaved look at the moment, eventually i will be totally bald. elisabeth watched and then went into the office and did a picture and wrote "mom i love you". that made me cry again. hope did fine. she just said "hi momma" when i came out of the bathroom. anyway, please pray for strength to handle this part of it. i knew it would be hard and now that it's actually happening i am really struggling. thank you all, jennifer

HIS love will make you and your girls stronger than you ever thought you could be. HIS grace will define this time in your life.
