My curly hair

This was a challenge for our retreat.  Scrapbook something from your childhood.  I believe this is my 2nd grade school picture.  The story I told, was how mom thought something was terribly wrong with me, because she would wet my hair and comb it, and within a very short time, it would just be flying all over the place.  She finally figured out I had naturally curly hair.  Most of the time I felt like it was a curse.  I hated it growing up, because the style was long and straight while I was in high school.  Girls wore soup cans to bed to straighten their hair or ironed it.  I couldn't do anything to get mine straight.  Now, after all these years, I still have curly hair, but not nearly as curly as it was back then.  And...now...I almost wish I had it all back!  Never satisfied....
