French Braiding Success!

When I was a little girl, my mother was the master french braiding lady. She could do french braids around my head, inside out, upside down, you name it, she could do it! She could get them exceptionally tight...I remember crying because sometimes they were too tight! She had amazing braiding skills and I wanted to be just like her!

I used to be able to braid well when I was younger, but got out of practice and well, I pretty much stunk at it for the last decade. I decided a while back that I was going to improve myself and learn to french braid again. I sat down this morning, determined to get it right the first time, and to my great astonishment and pleasure...I did it!

Although they are not perfect, I think I would have made my mother proud today!

Need Some Inspiration?

I grew up with one of the smartest and funniest little girls, Kimberly Dunn. She is now all grown up, married (now Mrs. Hedges), and has chosen to be an incredible stay-at-home-mom. She has created a website full of her beloved humor, wit, and talent:

Just A Mom...HA!

She shares recipes, daily happenings, weight-loss inspiration, etc. I love to read about her goals, successes, and health tips. Check it out; you'll be glad you did!
