Today I am thankful #19

I am thankful that even though I can't stand my hair being this long, I have decided to keep it long. If I had my way I would like to cut my hair short. Probably to my chin or shoulder. I would have it very choppy and longer in the front (just a little). I have had the same hair style and length since High School. I mean, I have cut it short, but I've just had this same look most of my adult life. I would like something my trendy and a little edgy. But my husband loves my hair long. I don't know if he just likes the way it looks because he doesn't sit there and run his fingers through it, so for whatever reason he does love it. So that is why I have kept it long. But why am I thankful for keeping it long? Well I am thankful that 1. I care about looking attractive for my husband. If long hair is what he likes then that is how it will stay. But 2. my little Josiah likes to play with it. When I'm nursing him, he always reaches out for my hair and then he pulls it to his face. This will start to put him to sleep. It does hurt when he grabs my baby hairs, but because it is so long he rarely grabs and pulls it far enough to make it hurt. I'll get my hair and run it over his forehead and down his cheeks and he just smiles with his eyes closed.
Because of this, it has made it worth having long hair.
