My vanity.

So my mom boldly went where not many women would go� if they had a choice.

For the second time, voluntarily, mom has shaved off her hair for the bald look. The first time she did it, she was in a junior high school gym full of kids. She was all happy and crying and blah blah blah. Secretly- I was proud of her but I didn�t exactly know what for. I know this much- she had friends rolling their eyes at her wondering why she was doing it. I wouldn't call them friends if they questioned that. I would call them acquaintances.

Last Saturday mom shaved off her hair again. This time there were no tears or motivational speeches after the deal. It was in the centre court at Market Mall around random Saturday shoppers. Mom did this along with 7 other people. Her goal was to raise enough money to send someone to a Cancer Retreat called Tapestry (if you asked me to explain the whole Tapestry thing- I couldn�t tell you- but I am sure mom would be more than happy to explain it).

Her head looks like peach fuzz.

While watching her at the mall I couldn�t help but wonder about my own vanity. Would I do it? Probably not. Why not? Because I am that conceited that I couldn�t not have hair. If I could somehow raise $10,000, then I would do it. Until then- I will revel in my mothers glow.

Go mom.
