Today has been a great day.
My friend Chontee and I took Makily today to do pictures at the Pumpkin Patch.
I wanted Makily's hair to look perfect and Chontee had encouraged me to let her wear it down which I don't do too often.
Makily got out today at noon. I brought her home and gave her a bath. I knew I would have to blow dry her hair if I wanted to be on time. I was not looking forward to doing her hair at all because she usually screams bloody murder.
I brushed her wet hair out (I put Spongebob on first) and started to blow dry her hair. I have never done this before. I was waiting for the tantrum to start when I realized Makily was smiling. She kept looking at me and clapping her hands.....and then smiling.
I started to cry.
I sound crazy I know.
It hit me what a normal thing I was doing with my daughter.
A normal thing...that we were both enjoying.
I had a normal mother daughter moment.
As I blew it dry I kept thinking how beautiful her hair is. I swear it's like spun gold.
I'm not just saying that either.
She was so sweet while I did her hair.
I curled it with a curling iron and she cooperated for that too.
When I was done, I cried some more.
I just can't get over how beautiful she is.
I know she is mine and so I am partial but I really have a pretty kid.
Here are the pictures from the day. It was a good one (tiring but good).

I love her

**btw those of you wondering where are the pumpkins are.....well I am wondering the same thing! Chontee got to the Pumpkin Patch and they were CLOSED! No pumpkins anywhere! We both thought they were opened until the day after Halloween but I guess we were wrong! We got some good ones anyway.
**Her outfit WHICH IS TO DIE FOR I ordered from a lady on EBAY.
Here is a link to her store.
Little MiMi's Boutique
***THANKS AGAIN Chontee for taking these pictures.
They turned out beautiful and I am so grateful to have them.
I will cherish them always!***

That's a beautiful story Trish. I'm so glad you and Makily enjoyed your day. She is a beautiful little girl, and her hair is pretty too! By the way, you look great Trish!

I love the story of you doing her hair, I charish anything "normal" I get to do with Alex. She is beautiful!
absolute perfection. Stunning. You made me cry.
She is absolutely beautiful! She looks so happy having her pictures taken with you. So pretty.
She is such a cutie! I absolutely love her hair down like that :)
I've always marveled at how beautiful Makily's hair is....and you always have it done so cute.
I really enjoyed reading about your day. I find that I treasure the small stuff so much more with my little Brendan than I did with my other kids. My perspective has definately changed. Every little thing has become a huge milestone to be celebrated. Thanks for sharing!
