Introduction	I am the proud wife of 14 years to Marigold and Mommy to two lovely flowers Rose and Chrysanthemum. I wear my hair in locks. I don't call them "dreadlocks," because to me, there's nothing dreadful about my hair. In an effort to lose weight (and keep it off!) I've recently taken up running. I love it, never thought I would, and I find myself looking forward to the next time I can get out and run. I hope you enjoy my blog and feel free to leave comments. Please don't copy my pics!

The children are waiting! Please tell them the story about the bald frog with the wig:

She wears a wig because she burned all her hair out getting relaxers. She thinks the wig looks very natural.
