I still have another 4 inches or so before can cut it but hope to do so for my 40th birthday!!<br />I love the photo of the four girls with their pony tails. I think Locks of Love would really appreciate copies of these pics.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09144122216662029672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136941190156691502.post-41695879800278258902010-08-04T11:41:41.569-04:002010-08-04T11:41:41.569-04:00I have an award for you at my blog...because I lov...I have an award for you at my blog...because I love your blog!Olives and Pickleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03732833409515576314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136941190156691502.post-53758880960720334922010-08-04T10:42:47.484-04:002010-08-04T10:42:47.484-04:00Yay Shanti!
