Capturing the context of contentment in everyday life.
This past spring I attended a fundraiser for a sweet girl in our town. I ended up having the highest bid on one of the silent auction items, a gift certificate to a newer local beauty salon & day spa! I have been meaning to schedule an appointment for months, but with the expiration date coming up next month I finally got around to doing so… just in time for Thanksgiving!

My three pretty girls all had the appointments for their haircuts this morning.

Very happy that the new (to us) hairdresser not only washed their hair in a big fancy sink, but braided their hair (and showed me how) too!
{funny}
Rose, however, didn’t know what to think about her very first haircut….

Home again! Now if we can just figure out a way to open the front door without one of the cats trying to sneak in every. single. time.
Tomorrow it is my turn for a little pampering,
including a cut, style and even a spa pedicure!!
Prayer of Mothers
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
I love the hair stlyes. What a fun adventure for your girls.
Blessings,
Dawn

Oh, your girls are so lovely! Enjoy your pampering! Every woman should have spa pedicures, especially during pregnancy.
What a treat! I love those sweater dresses, by the way.
looks like fun, That is how I braid my girls hair for ballet and things. I also do what we call a headband braid. and stop when it looks like a headband.
