Flash back about 30 years ago and you’re looking at me in my favorite hairstyle. I was in 3rd or 4th grade, rockin’ an awesome 3/4 length t-shirt with a rainbow on it. The side ponytail was perfectly angled — not straight out to the side and not straight back.
I didn’t intentionally style her hair like this. I put her hair in pigtails and she pulled one out. She discovered the magic of the side ponytail all by herself.
Sometimes I look at her and know exactly how she’s feeling. Most of the time I don’t have a clue, but on rare wonderful occasions I can see myself in her, as her, and it’s like looking in a mirror. I can see the thoughts in her head and know exactly what she’s thinking. Today it’s I look awesome.
