locks of love

i am not a fan of cutting my children's hair. not even my boys', but especially not my girls. for whatever reason the scripture in 1 Corinthians sticks with me:

"But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering." 1 Corinthians 11:15. (KJV)

but i dont want to be legalistic or drive my children to wrath over things that will not affect them eternally. so with that thought we allowed rachel & abigail grace to cut their hair. abigail grace hasnt had a hair cut....a real hair cut ever. she has had a trim....but never of significance. i think it was 3 years ago that rachel cut her hair this short & last did locks of love. and of course locks of love will use their hair to make wigs for children with alopecia & cancers that make their hair fall out.

anyway, here is a before & an after shot of the girls with their new shorter looks....still cute...and still enough of a covering.

this picture was on the camera of elizabeth. she is tired but so beautiful. she doesnt want to cut her hair! which i'm glad. she is growing up so fast! but then again they all are.
