First Haircut!

Well, Kate's hair was getting pretty straggly, and she's going to be a flower girl in a couple weeks! So we thought it was time for her first haircut! We invited over our friend Larry to do the honors. Larry was formerly a hairdresser in Ottawa (the Canadian capital) and developed quite a clientele--many people on the Prime Minister's staff, international opera stars and even the man who played Max Headroom! And then God called him to Briercrest Seminary and here he is, living in Caronport, giving Kate her first haircut! Larry dreams of living with the people in Haiti--teaching them the Bible, and maybe even giving a few haircuts along the way!


Kate was quite unsure at first so Mr. Larry just used her brush on her hair for a while




They played hide and seek with his cape, and he let Kate play with his neck sweeper




It didn't take long for Kate to warm up to the idea! I don't have a good "after" picture but she has a cute bob!

Yup, Mr. Larry is the best as I know from personal hair style experience. Can't wait to see Kate's new "do".
