"Why don't you get a haircut? You look like a chrysanthemum"
After reading my last post , my Mother inquired about a certain "other picture" of me from around the same time. The result of her LEAVING me at the beauty parlor...with the same stylist who broke the devastating news that my blonde hair would not last into adulthood
Five years old with a mild obsession with Olivia Newton John...I told the stylist I wanted to look just like Sandy. This is what I had in mind...
What I got was a fully-processed perm (on a 5 year old!)

You should have been a therapist..."Feeling kinda' blue? Here. Look at these pictures taken of me when I was five years old. Why yes. That is an adult tooth, why do you ask?"
Oh lord, Jennifer, you had me laughing 'til I had tears.
Ha! Your poor thing...... I think you still look pretty darn cute though. Thanks for the chuckle! Enjoy your weekend!
THE DENTURE IS THE BEST!!
I love it. I've hidden away all the photos of my perm years out of shame. I always liked Sandy at the beginning of the movie better than the bad girl at the end. Still do!
Hope your week is off to a lovely start! XO
