Day 5

This morning I was helping tie my 4-year-old's shoe. She leaned down and smelled my hair. She told me it smelled very pretty.

I haven't had a chance to take my morning shower, so I haven't washed it in 2 days. Two days! And my hair still smells "pretty".

That my friends, is confirmation in the purest form that I am doing something good. She will never know how much that tiny comment pushed me to see this through, always.

That is so AWESOME!  I have not washed in days either!  (I quit Monday)  It is actually better for your hair to skip a day or two, but I never could because of the smell of smoke.  I can so relate to that.  Good for you!  I am a day behind you!

Congrats to you on 5 days.  Isn't wonderful not to smell like smoke.

Kids are the best. I was having a moody moment and my 11 year old said...I hope you feel better soon Mom! They push us along with their love 🙂
