Bursting with pride

OMG that's so awesome! What a sweet and beautiful little girl you have.

Not sure why it shows the after first but you get the idea.

Wow, your daughter is both adorable and quite giving!   good for her!    You should be super proud

WTG!!!

I remember when my Gracie did that last year.  We were very proud.

You have done some great parenting there.

That is so sweet and wonderful!

She looks great with the short hair too! And she is so young, it will grow back out quickly! In case she wants to give more hair again!

Simply awesome. 

Wow!  That is awesome.  To be so young and want to do that is just amazing.  She is a beautiful girl both inside and out.

When I take a look at todays kids and shake my head in disgust, I'm brought back with a smile when I hear something like this and still think there is hope with our future.  Tell her there are people thanking her in silence.  Just to note also, my son (age 10) has been asking why I had to go to the doctor all last year and asking about chemo, radiation etc.  I didn't come right out and tell him, because I thought he would figure it out on his own, which he did, but we have never talked about it in detail.  Regardless, I signed us both up to be a Livestrong Army Leader for our state.  Basically, its free, you "support" the Livestrong Army by passing out brochures about cancer to churches, bike shops, schools etc.  Its making awareness of this disease out for everyone.  You can support the Army anyway you want with any imagination.  I'm proud of him for helping me with this task.  Your daughter should feel very proud of herself.

Very cool!! That's awesome!

Good for you and your daughter... you should be proud of yourself too. 

"Wow"! How awesome is that! However it looks like she has a great example to learn from though. "Your doing a fantastic job Mom"!!!

Very cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it!!
I wonder if there IS some way you could go visit a cancer support organization to volunteer or something so she can meet people who use the wigs. Obviously she won't get to see her OWN hair being used, but maybe she can volunteer and meet some cancer patients in the process...

The local cancer support organization in my city has a "wig shop" where patients can come in and try on wigs, scarves, hats, etc. and they use volunteers to help out in the process. Just a thought!

Very sweet and I think she looks adorable w short hair !

You should be "Bursting with Pride!"  What an amazing 5 year old - imagine her future!!  Way to go Mom! 

P.S.(Please show her this thread - she deserves to see all of these posts admiring her!!)

Awesome!

That rocks! 

I want to cut my hair off but it's not quite long enough to donate yet so it continues to grow.  Can't wait to give it away for the 2nd time in my life. 

Very cool.

A friend of mine just did the same thing and she had hair that about went down to her butt and she cut it to her ears.

What a great little girl you have!  My daughter did the same thing 2 years ago.

At the beginning of this year, my son was diagnosed with cancer.  We have spent a long time at the (somewhat) local children's hospital on the oncology floor.  Although my son is isn't a girl and won't be getting a wig, I have seen many girls on the floor wearing them.  Please let your daughter know what an amazing boost it give the kids to "have hair" again.
