a day for curls

yesterday was picture day at school.
she chose her outfit.
she asked me to curl her hair.
what??? this has happened only twice since her birth. she is adamant about how she wants her hair done. day after day, she will dictate to me exactly what i am to do. usually this is what i hear, "side pony tail, mom. and NO curls!"
i never argue. sometimes i will suggest we try something different. but normally it doesn't fly.
but yesterday…yesterday she asked for curls.

and i happily obliged.
