Hair today, gone tomorrow

It was time.

Now we're ready for the heat.

And this child and her golden curls - oh my lands.  It kills me!  She has the most gorgeous head of hair.

As she sat on my lap the other night looking at a book, just as the sunset was glaring through the living room, this was my view. 

Pure beauty.

(Um, please pay no attention to the brother apparently streaking by on the way back from the shower.  Thanks.  Hey, at least he had a towel on).
