So, my girls have my hair.\u00a0 I’ve tried to convince McCanless that you should just work with what you have, not aim for something totally unattainable.\u00a0 She’ll get it one day.\u00a0 Until then, I’ll try my best to temporarily give my girls the curly locks they dream of.\u00a0 For dance photo day, I asked both girls what they wanted.\u00a0 Curls, of course.\u00a0 They know how difficult this is, but once a year, we give it a shot.\u00a0 We’ve tried hot rollers, sleeping in sponge rollers, even benders, paper towels, wet, dry, gel, hairspray, curling shampoo.\u00a0 Everything. Once again, I pulled out a curling iron, which seems to work best, and went to work…<\/p>\n

Ta-Da!<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it lasted as long as it took to step outside.\u00a0 When we arrived at the dance studio (a mere few blocks away downtown), the girls’ hair was as straight as when we began the entire ordeal.\u00a0 Oh well, at least I got a photo of it temporarily “curly.”\u00a0 What I failed to get a photo of is Mary Clare in her dance costume.\u00a0 I was so busy keeping her all together and clean before the photographer called her, I didn’t have a minute to take one myself.\u00a0 She was so excited to see so many friends, she was all over the place running and playing.\u00a0 Afterward, I was so concerned about getting her out of the white and black costume (complete with white gloves and pill box hat) before it was ruined, I certainly didn’t have time!\u00a0 Oh well, I’ll post the photos from the recital.\u00a0 I can’t wait to see what she does this year on stage.<\/p>\n

As for McCanless, she was too busy socializing to get a photo with little sister anyway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I didn’t get shots of her hip hop costume, her absolute favorite costume.\u00a0 It was the last one of the day for her, and I think I was “done.”\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 She had a ball.\u00a0 Dance and performing are so McCanless.\u00a0 She truly loves it.\u00a0 She’s in five dances in the recital this year and couldn’t be more excited.\u00a0 She can’t wait.<\/p>\n
