Today Emma did a selfless act of service that brought tears to my eyes. She donated 8 inches of her hair to Pantene Beautiful Lenths. Through Pantene women that have had hair loss due to cancer are able to receive wigs free of cost. It takes 6 pony tails to make a wig. At school today 23 people donated hair. It was a moving thing to watch and I am so proud of Emma and her choice to do this. She did it thinking about her Grandma knowing that she has been battling cancer for 2 years and dealing with hair loss and the need for a wig.
Here are my Mom (Emma's grandma), Emma and Mo working in my mom's garden last summer:
