the first lock and first lock of love…
When our Molly was a toddler, her hair was as radiant as a sunlit tree in Autumn.
Wherever we roamed, she was swooned over by jealous admirers. If they could, she feared, some would have snipped off many a lock and stolen away into the night! We had to keep an extra tight hold on our little child of gold.
But, in time our little girl came to realize just where “the gold” in life lies, where true treasure is…as she gave her hair away to “Locks for Love.”

Molly, just like her parents…a Giver.

Mike, As any apple picker, tomato grower, star gazer, leaf lover (that’s you) knows, Nature gives and gives and grows back again as long as She’s loved. Must have been so with you and yours long ago – and so now, Friar Dad. Peace, and thanks from the Prairie State
