This is interesting B~. After my wife gave birth she cut her hair very short. I know it was for practical reasons, so a baby's grabbing hands would not pull her hair. I never expressed my opinions on this but I hated when she cut her hair like that. It was the worst look for her. Looking back now, it also was her transformation from wife to mother. My dream girl with flowing hair was taken from me, replaced by a mother with an unbecoming hair-do. My fantasy was over just like that.
Thank goodness she has that beautiful long hair I love so much again. Even now when I complement her about her hair she will say things like, "I'm too old to wear my hair long like this anymore." To me it looks better now than ever, even better than in our younger days. I always reinforce how much I love the way that it looks and beg her not to cut it short when she says those things.
Now if I could just get her to wear something other than Birkenstock shoes every now and then.
You know how to tell the difference between a German shoe and an Italian shoe in the dark? The German one is the one you'd grab for throwing at a yowling ally cat because it'll have enough heft to get the job done.
