It's time for curls, girls

My three older girls wore sponge rollers for years. I spent literally hundreds of hours rolling each little head night after night (rarely, if ever, skipping a night) until they were in elementary school, late elementary school.

Girls with curls...how I loved that.

She looks so cute!! I wish I could do that with my daughter's hair, but her hair is so fine.

LOL! No eyelash curling here.

I've been waiting not-so-patiently for the time to come. And it was a little harder with my fine-haired daughter.
