My Liberian children do keep me guessing! So if you were an 8 year old Liberian boy and your mom left some nails and a hammer on the good dining room chair, what would you do?!? Yep, you guessed right! He started to hammer it right into the middle of the seat! Thankfully Drew came down the stairs just at that moment and he was caught in the act. The repercussions included writing down why he might have thought that was a good idea and why it was not a good idea. Also some free labor for mom as restitution.

Also for all those of you who have wondered why Hannah's hair is not left down, I thought I would leave you a picture of her hair pre-braids. And yes, I did just do her hair, but she has been itching her scalp like crazy and it was such a mess. So if anyone has any ideas for itchy black scalp let me know. I have tried conditioning, oiling and dandruff shampoo. I am out of ideas and it takes to long to do her hair I would like to resolve this!!
Last but not least, Danielle is having to make some car decisions in the next few days. I am sure she would appreciate your prayers.

I followed back from the adopting from Liberia site. I use tea tree oil on the scalp. You can find many spray products for braids with it. I spray it their hair morning and night. I also only wash my girls' hair once a week--sometimes without shampoo (I know sounds funny), but I use conditioner and rinse it well. A lot of hair care is trial and error, because every head is so different. All six of my girls require something different.
Best wishes...and Merry Christmas!
