It feels like it's been a long, cold, and drab winter. Sometimes that puts you in a rut, makes you want to wear yoga pants every day, and it's a rare occasion when you actually put a comb to your hair because you're just going to wear a hat anyway. I was in that rut. Then one day at preschool drop-off, I saw something that changed everything. It was like this beacon of beauty. A ray of sunshine. It was one of the moms with her hair in gorgeous mermaid waves, a hint of berry sheen on her lips, and long beautiful mascara-enhanced lashes. Then at pick-up I noticed another mom, a little dressier than usual, not one flyaway, no frizz, eyes that looked like they had plenty of sleep. Then there was the braid mom -- perfect. It was time for me to catch on to this, too.![]()
