Hair Accessories

We don't often put "hair things" in Anya's hair but there was that one day that we went overboard and put a barrette AND a pile of small blankets on her head...


We sometimes think we should keep more hair accessories on her (i.e. in her hair) so that people know she's a girl. Just yesterday, at a service activity a couple of people "closing in on the end of the road" at a nursing home didn't know that she was a girl. Perhaps a little hair peice would have helped. But then again, a little piece of colored plastic won't cure the poor eye sight of the elderly.... (We still love them!)

Still, Anya was a little jealous of her grandma's trip to Africa and thought that if she could carry enough weight on her head like some of the African women do, she could perhaps convince her grandma in Canada to come visit her! "Look at me, Grandma!"

She has improved quite a lot recently and can balance three quarters of her weight for 30 minutes on her head now...



Okay, just joking! The pile of blankets are actually on the couch behind her... Ha ha ha! "What great joy is to me..."
