I know a little girl
who has a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead;
and when she was good,
she was very, very good
and when she was bad,
she was awful.
My grandmother used to say that rhyme to me quite a bit. Still not sure if she was actually talking about me though. I didn't have a curl, so I always figured she wasn't. Now, I wonder.
Isla June has this wonderful, beautiful, amazing and special little curl behind her right ear. I love it. Often I will run my fingers over it, much to her dismay, just so I can watch it spring back into shape.
I had curly hair just like hers when I was little. My family called me "Bozo", like the clown. Isla June's ringlets don't stick out as much as mine did; hers are much more refined.
But, I lost those curls, probably around the age the of 4 so, I suspect Isla June will lose hers as well.
and I wanted a picture. Just of the curl. So I could remember.
P.S. I finally uploaded Isla June's birthday video. I know, I know, 7 months late. You can see it HERE
Harlan has a little curl in the back too! It sometimes looks like a rats tail, but I absolutely love it!
ReplyDeleteHa! I love that you called it a rat's tail. I bet it is precious.
