Long, Lovely Locks

I love braids! I love having Maddie's hair braided during the summer, or anytime really, because it means sleeping a little later in the morning. It means low maintance hair for about a month. Maddie has been getting her hair braided since she was 2 with great success. McKenzie, on the other hand, has very short hair and it is difficult to braid. That is, until Ms. Sereta got hold of her head the other night!

Ms Sereta is the assistant teacher in McKenzie's class at Mt. Sinai. She has 3 children of her own and my kids love her kids. So, Sereta says she can braid McKenzie's hair. I said great! So, 4 hours later, my child with the neat afro comes home with long, lovely locks.

Attention white people - McKenzie (age 2) now has extentions. This is not her own hair.





She looks so grown up! The extra hair will help her own hair grow and we should be good to go for 4-6 weeks. I love Sereta!
