J -- now with short hair

J has been dying to get her hair cut short for months. I put her off until after the wedding, but Sunday was the day. She got 10inches cut off and we're sending it to Locks of Love. She loves having short hair like her big sister.

Here's the before:

M's pre-school graduation

Last Friday M had her pre-school graduation ceremony. Only a couple more weeks and she'll be in big-kid school. It's a big step for the whole family.

I loved all the kids in the little paper graduation hats. They all walked in together, they sang an adorable song that their teacher made up for them. They were all fidgety and goofy -- waving to their parents and grandparents. They even had them all walk across a bridge and moved their tassel from one side to the other and they got a diploma/certificate. The kids were all adorable and proud. It was a wonderful morning!
