Wow, 11 years ago today my sweet Taliah Marie made her way into this world and how blessed I feel that God picked me to be her Momma! Taliah is one of the sweetest kids I know. At the age of 8 she donated her hair for cancer wigs long before Joel had cancer. When she was 5 she saw a show about people donating their hair and she knew it was something she wanted to do.
At almost 11 she decided it was time to do it again, it was with a little sorrow on my part I braided her long hair for the last time.
She laughed at me and said, “Mommy it’s only hair!” She plans on making this her hobby, we read once that it takes 6 donations of hair to make one wig. This time donating her hair carried much more meaning for her.
In the end it was a bit shorter then she bargained for but again she shrugged, it is only hair.
On her party day we were out and about and found this lovely fountain to pose in front of. Taliah is a budding artist that is definitely her own person. I love that she is confident in who she is and doesn’t worry that perhaps there are few other 11 year old girls wearing cowgirl hats and bandannas. She is fun, creative, loving and caring. She loves the Lord and her family and I couldn’t ask for anything more. Happy Birthday my sweet girl!!!!
