The Lack of Hair

For being a family of five we sure are short on hair around here.  I personally choose to have short hair due to have that it's easy and manageable.  Josh has short hair cause his hair is still extremely thin, and it's easier.  Gray has short hair cause his hair is finally growing back in.  Jer keeps his hair short cause he is losing his hair, not by his choice.
Saray on the other hand could have long hair but she twirls, pulls and sometimes eats her hair after it gets beyond the 3/4 inch clipper mark.  This time last year we had to clip her hair due to the fact that she had a large bald spot on the side of her head from twirling and pulling it out.
A year later we are still dealing with this issue.  We just clipped her hair again (oh and she HATES getting her hair cut...you think she'd learn...), shorter than Joshua's, due to the fact that she was twirling, pulling and sometimes eating her hair.
It makes me so sad as I would love for her to have longer hair so she could wear hair clips or pig-tails.  But nope, for now I get to wait this out and pray that she outgrows this silly and annoying habit; for now I will deal with the comments about my daughter having short hair and the fact she is often mistaken for a being a boy, regardless of what she wears.

Please, Saray, stop twirling, pulling and eating your hair, you silly girl.
