Losing Her Hair

On Saturday at the hospital, her hair finally started to come out. And boy did it come out! There was hair everywhere. We hadn't known quite what to expect. It was very sad to watch it. When we were at the Group Health hospital the first time, we met a wonderful family that has a daughter with leukemia. That little girl has a beautiful spirit! She was stark bald and she didn't care! When she started losing her hair they made a party out of it. Dad shaved his head and she got hers done too. None of this waiting around as it slowly thins out to nothing! That is when we decided to do the same thing. I am so glad that we did. The hair was so messy - falling out on everything. We cut off a few locks to save, and then went ahead and shaved the rest off. She is the most beautiful baby I ever saw! She doesn't mind a bit either. I would have hated to see it happen slowly.
