Addie participated in the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program that one of our local tv stations sponsors. People sign up to have their hair cut, and the donated hair is made into wigs for people battling cancer and who lose their hair due to the treatments. Addie has only had her hair trimmed once but has never had any length cut off, so this was a big day for her. We talked to her about it at length b/c we didn't want to push her into it if it was going to traumatize her. After all, she is only 3 1/2 and could do it when she's older. We explained to her that it would help a very sick little girl who doesn't have any hair. She wanted to do it from the time we told her about it. Well, today was the big day. We went to the appointed facility at six am this morning (whew...I had to get up at 4!!) The WLBT crew was there with cameras rolling as Addie came in. Her entire haircut was filmed (she had approximately 10 inches cut) and she sat there so sweetly as if she's been on tv every day of her life. After her cut was done, they interviewed me and that part was on their live morning report. She looks precious and we're so proud of you, Addie! We love you!!
