Why I Have Grey Hair

11.29.11

Some say grey hair is hereditary.

(my gorgeous mother, picture courtesy of my talented sister)
I’m thinking it has more to do with this one.
Who yesterday shoved a fruit snack up her nose. Which meant a frantic call to the pediatrician while she screamed in the background with an occasional “BOO BOO IN MY NOSE!,” another frantic call to a neighbor who is an ER nurse, another frantic call to my husband at work, and then another call back to the pediatrician after it appeared as if the fruit snack had melted and had now run right out of that left nostril, which led to a “No more boo boo, Mama. Happy now.” 
At least she won’t do that again.
Or so I thought.
Turned around in the car today to find her with a veggie stick totally sticking out of her nose as she just smiled.

10 more grey hairs today than yesterday.

    I’ve got one that causes new gray hairs to pop up daily, as well! But I wouldn’t trade her for anything!!! :)

    And your Mom is beautiful…I hope I wear my gray that well!

    That grin is irresistible, even dangerous.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
