'curly' hair

this is what we woke up to on friday morning.  madelyn was going to try to leave her braids in until saturday when we picked up nana, but just had to take them out first thing when she woke up on friday.  she was pretty delighted with her 'curly' hair.  (her teacher has curly hair so madelyn has asked to have curly hair.  i told her if she wears braids her hair will be very wavy like curls.)  surprisingly, it didn't really fall out during the course of the day either. 
when we went to the grocery store that afternoon i let her go in the kid's care (they only take kids over 3 - much to mason's dismay).  madelyn was wearing a purple and grey striped shirt with a snowman, a dressy, full, plaid pink and green skirt, blue knee-high socks with multi-colored hearts, and in her hair she wore a fuzzy purple headband.  the lady watching the kids asked her if it was 'wacky' day at school.  when i explained that madelyn always dresses like that she called her a "rebel" which madelyn though was "robber" and disputed.  then the lady told her that it was a good thing and would mean that she was very successful in life.  madelyn still wasn't buying it but wasn't quite as upset.  she is a free spirit and i just love it.  love.
