Me - Trendy?!

Yesterday I was sitting in my sister's salon chair. Like I do every Tuesday morning. Graysen and I have standing appointments. Tuesdays and Thursdays - 9:15 - 11:15. We drop Hunter off at pre-school and then head to Kara's to get our hair done. It's a nice time to catch up with my sister...plus I don't have to do my hair two days a week!

As I was sitting in the chair I over heard an older woman in another chair.

"Well, look at that, that girl must do all the trendy styles in here."

Was she referring to my hair as trendy?! I've never once thought of myself as trendy. Never. Not in High School, not in college, and definitely not since becoming a mom 5.5 years ago!

But, as I sat there looking at myself in the mirror, with my hair nicely washed and styled by my sister, holding my precious baby girl on my lap with her hair neatly braided in double french braids and her finger and toe nails freshly painted I could see it. Just for a moment, I was a trendy girl. I was a trendy mom.
