The kids all got together yesterday because we had family photos taken. Afterwards, we went home, ordered pizza and shaved my head. I’m not attached to my hair at all, so there were no tears involved. What bothered me more than losing my hair was the constant shedding and having to clean it up all the time. It was on my pillow, in the tub, on my clothing… basically everywhere. That was stressful.
I feel a million times better this morning. One less thing to worry about! Three of my kids ended up shaving their heads as well. There was a lot of laughing, chaos with the grandkids jumping around, food and fun. It was perfect.
The thing that I am most grateful for is definitely the love of my family. So often, as moms, we put everyone and everything ahead of ourselves. It is easy to disappear into the background. One thing that this whole process has showed me is that I am not alone, and that is an amazing feeling.
