A New Reflection

In response to my friend Sylvia's blog...

Okay, so I love this post for many reasons. First, because when I read it, I immediately thought of the phone call I got last night while I was out eating with my parents.

S: "Hey, just wanted to tell you this really quick. I think I need to buys some new panties!"
M: "Why, did you have an accident?"
S: "No! I just keep having to pull them up when I exercise!!"

I got off the phone and told my parents, "That was Sylvia, she just called to let me know she ran on the treadmill today." What else was I supposed to say?? :-)

Now, on to the pride, the shrinking, and that hair-do hero stuff! I totally agree with what you said about looking in the mirror and being able to smile again. I think we both know what that feels like, and being complimented by others at work, or wherever, is even better. But, mostly it's about how we feel on the inside that counts. And, that is really hard to feel good when you don't feel like you look good on the outside.

And for that feeling great part, we have the best hairdresser in the world to thank (Shout out to Onyx Hair Studio) for always knowing exactly how to make us feel better in our own skin...or hair! There isn't a day that goes by that I am not thankful for having this amazing woman in my life. Not only is she a great friend of the family, but she is a caring person who takes the time to make you feel special. I am so glad I could bring her into your life, so you could feel those wonderful hair blessings too!!

Sometimes when you are feeling down, all you need is a little positive feedback (to keep you from complaining too much), time with your friends, and the courage to get a rockin' haircut!!

See you tonight at 6:45 for our transformation. Love you, SO proud of you, and I can't wait to see what "new" people we will see in the mirror by this summer.
