Each person should judge his own actions and not compare himself with others. Then he can be proud for what he himself has done. Galatians 6:4

You've got to love this hair do!! Here I am the age of 7. I think ALL of my elementary school pictures I look as if my head is crooked!! Thanks to my wonderful grandmother who always took the time to cut our hair using the "straight" method of scotch tape. She would put tape on our bangs and we would have to holds still while she cut across.. and with each little SNIP came a tickle to your nose and lips!! Oh.. she tried... This is a bad picture of a picture I took.. I DO have teeth.. believe it or not.. I didn't lose my first baby tooth until I was about 8. And this red hair.. well.. it lasted til about my teen years.. and it changed color.. go figure!! But anyway.. I LOVED the show BANANA SPLITS!! normally the TV is not on during the day.. but today I watched a friend son and I stumbled upon BOOMERANG!! and this show was on!!! I couldn't believe it... So I thought I would share a small clip with you!!!

Tooooo cute! My mom just used to keep snipping until she got it straight but by that time we had pretty short bangs. LOL.

btw, I looove your comments at my site. They are such a blessing and sometimes I want to respond back but it won't go through because you don't have your email address in your profile. Any chance you would add that or at least email me so that your email registers in my address book?

How cute are you?!?!?

My mom never used the scotch tape method....it was out to the front porch w/ the "special haircutting scissors, a spray bottle and a comb."
She'd spray them, comb them and then start cutting from one side to the other. And I, of course, would blow out my mouth aiming to get them out of my eyes and quit tickling...and she'd get so upset!

Well, I just cut M's bangs 2 days ago and she kept messing them up, every single time I combed them down...... I couldn't help but laugh and think of the memories!!

Oh my, do I remember the lovely tape my mom used! It was pink!!! I always had the shortest bangs when she was done.

I love your play list!!!!
