good thing i have clients who will not miss their appointment no matter what. they are the only thing that kept me afloat this week. it finally cleared up on friday and saturday and boy was i busy. apparently everyone had cabin fever and wanted to get their hair done.

on one snow day i saw one of my absolute favorite clients. she has 3 daughters and her youngest has down syndrome. she is the absolute best mom i have ever known. she is so good with her youngest daughter. she is so patient, and kind, and she loves her beyond belief. it's really a joy to see. i also happen to love her daughter. she is precious. she is so sweet and she loves fashion just like me. i have been doing her hair for about 3 years now and it has been such an experience to see her grow and change. the difference between the years is remarkable. she is growing into such a fantastic young woman and her mom has such high hopes and big plans for her i can't wait to see what her future holds.

friday i saw my daddy. i love my dad. we are so much a like and i didn't realize it until recently. the older i get the more i identify with him. he is a control freak like me. we like to do things ourselves. we are people pleasers. to a certain extent. we would rather hold our tongue than say what we feel sometimes. we love to give gifts that we know will bring someone joy. we are hard workers. we will work until our fingers bleed just to get the job done. but we put that job off until the last minute.we are creatures of habit. my dad is a very good man and he is so wise. he loves my brother and i beyond measure and thats about all i can ask of him.

saturday afternoon i saw a good friend of mine and her mom. both of whom i adore. my friend has such fierce loyalty to the ones she cares about and i admire her for that. she has two younger brothers and she will always want to mother them and it cracks me up because she's about 4ft. tall :) not really but still...and they both have already out grown by leaps and bounds! she also a hard worker and has a great head on her shoulders and that has alot to do with her mom. her mother is wise, and worldly. she gives great advice and will tell you how it is. you can't help but love them.

i told my client on friday that i was certain i was doing what God had planned for me because i have never been so passionate about anything in my life. i love my job and it's not just because i work for myself. i love every single day that i get to go to work and meet new people and do what i love to do. i get to be creative and use my brain. i've learned to read minds and it is awesome. i really have a hard time thinking anything negative about my job. even when things get tough i know that as long as i still love where i am and what i'm doing then the rest will fall back into place.
