It was a busy Wednesday.  She’d needed a cut for quite a while.  It’s just so hard to fit that kind of thing in.  After we dropped off Marie, Tabitha, and Johanna at their program and Stewart at choir we headed to our friend’s salon.  Only we didn’t know our friend didn’t work there anymore.  Oops.  And I didn’t know Katriel would fall asleep in the van on the way there.  Oops.  But as I scooped her out and gently woke her, she was intrigued by the idea.  She sat so still and silently took it all in.  Then when we went to pay she was offered a lollipop.  And she found her voice.  And she chatted all the way home about the experience.
