"Why is Faith in these braids ah?" I asked.
"Oh, she keeps eating her hair, so we tied it up for her," said one of the maids.
Pretty.
All the 3 kids always had short hair. Born with little hair, and grew slowly. So it was a nice change to see Faith with hair long enough to tie.
A friend jokingly told me his wife prayed for their firstborn girl would come out with a full head of hair. And their baby has a LOT of hair, man.
It is believed by an older generation that babies must have their heads shaven so that the hair will grow fuller. I wonder how many parents still do this. We never shaved our little ones.
