Kieran Loves Mommy's Hair

If it weren't for him I would have cut it off a long time ago. It's sweet, really. He has to play with my hair while nursing. It's also the only way he'll fall asleep. He says "want hair". He takes a bunch in his hand and brushes it along his cheek, like a paint brush. He also likes to just hold it in his fist. It's touching, really BUT it kills my neck! My hair isn't long enough to sit upright. No, he yanks my hair down to him! So, I'm letting my hair grow out so that it will make things easier on my poor neck. I know, know...but it's so sweet and means so much to him. It's a great comfort to him and for that...I'll grow my hair out as long as it takes.

Aww...That's sooo sweet! :)
My 5 year old is attached to my hair as well (still)- even though I've gotten it cut pretty short over the years.

I always said I was going to make a doll for him with my hair. :)
