Bush Hair

My husband has nicknames for the kids: "Long Hair" for Gracie, and "Short Hair" for Drew. I don't really remember when he started calling the kids that. However, I will never forget the day that Gracie looked at my husband and asked, "If I'm Long Hair and Drew is Short Hair, who is Mommy?" My husband asked her what she thought they should call me. Gracie thought for a minute, and said, "Bush Hair!"

Unfortunately for me, Gracie's description is very fitting. My hair is long, and if there is any humidity at all it gets frizzy and looks like ... well, like a bush. My husband thought Gracie's nickname for me was hilarious, and he has called me that ever since. Maybe someday when the kids are older I will spare more time to try to tame my hair.
