Madeline is our youngest. She is sweet natured, caring and giving. She has a huge heart and a quick brain (she will happily tell you the difference between a paleontologist and anthropologist if you give her the chance). Madeline loves to read, sing, dance and simply loves life. She is fearless and willing to try anything (which is one reason I'm not too surprised she was the first to have a broken bone).This past year she has become quite interested in the plight of others. She has checked out books from the library on how to do good things for others and on forming clubs that are set up to "make a difference". When the school PTA Reflections contest started this year Madeline immediately wanted to participate. The theme this year is "Together We Can". Students submit entries in various styles of art related to the theme. Maddie took awhile to come up with an idea- but once she had it- she stuck to it!
Her entry reads: Together we can make people feel better. You can donate your hair. They will make wigs with it for people who lose their haor from having cancer. I am going to donate my hair on November 22, 2010.Maddie donated her hair yesterday to Pantene's Beautiful Lengths donation program. 
We chose Pantene for a couple reasons over Locks of Love. Both are excellent programs, but Pantene fit us better. Maddie is over the moon excited about her new haircut and the fact that she is doing something that will help others in need. 
She also loved her first "real" haircut at a salon! Complete with hair wash and hot towel! 
When Maddie told me she wanted to do this I knew we had to do it right!
So I took her to the wonderful person that cuts my hair, Hala. Hala has been styling and cutting my hair, and my parents hair for about 15 years.
She did all the hair styles for my wedding and my sister's wedding. I knew Maddie would be in good hands with her! 
Maddie grinned from ear to ear through the whole cut. One of the requirements for donating with Pantene is that the hair must be 8 inches long. 
Once we had the hair cut- Hala then took the time to give her a style.
She is already asking how long until she can donate her hair again. 
My sweet Maddie has a heart of gold and an inner beauty that makes us so proud!
