“So I left a comment a couple days ago about my cousin. They have been with another agency (I removed the name) for about 18 mths and never met with a birth mom. I emailed her about your blog (btw, I love your cute hairstyles my daughter picks one every morning before she heads to school) she called Heart to Heart 2 weeks ago and last night they were chosen~!~ Can you believe it!! I am crying so hard right now, if it hadn’t been for you and your posting about your son this never would have happened.
Thank you sooooo much!”
I love hearing these stories! So thank “J” for letting me know and congrats to the family and their newest addition.
Happy Hairdoing!

A Quick Update
January 10, 2009
Just a quick update on the 4-year old girl situation…
Heart to Heart called today to let me know they have enough families to show to her family. They send out a personal H2H “THANK YOU” for all the calls and concern. However they are considering this situation closed to anymore families. They feel the family will definitely match with one of the families they are currently working with.
Way to go my people! You guys are so awesome.! I also say thank you to all that called, prayed, thought, or told others about this little girl. I know she is on her way to a wonderful family!

As of late many may have noticed that my “hair blog” is somehow morphing to an “adoption blog”. My husband keeps reminding me that I still need to cover the hair too! So allow me to just apologize to readers following a “hair blog” for the adoption stuff. And to those reading an “adoption blog” for lots of info about hair. LOL! Just think how well-rounded we will all be!
If I didn’t have the URL already set to “Cute Girls Hairstyles” I would more correctly call my blog something like “Mindless Ramblings by Mindy”. Too late now!
Happy Hairdoing!

Just a quick update on the non-preemie twins first… they have been matched! Thanks to all that called about them! I heard the agency received quite a few phone calls. Several phone calls came in after the twins had been matched – so keep checking back to find another situation perfect for you!
*****Here’s the newest situation…(if this one doesn’t break your heart I don’t know what will)*****
4 Year old girl, Caucasian, fees are $8000. Family must be home study ready, LDS, and NOT live in Utah county. I am told she looks like a young Dakota Fanning. Blonde hair, blue eyes, very cute.
Here’s the brief rundown…this little girl was adopted as a newborn into a family that had biological children as well. Apparently the mother never bonded with her like she did with her bio children. As a result the sweet little girl has experienced some neglect. She currently has some developmental delays relating to memory, visual sequencing, and learning. She has seen several dr’s recently and they all seem to think with the correct therapy (AND LOVE) she will catch up by age 7-8. She has progressed well in school.
Obviously they want to place this little girl in a loving home as quickly as possible. I was told that the little girl doesn’t seem to have any bonding issues. In fact she still tries to bond with the mother, despite the poor treatment. Remember that because she is 4 years old, you would be able to meet and talk with the girl right away to see if you are the right family! How cool is that!? Help me save the life of this poor sweet girl and find the RIGHT family that will love her like the child of God that she is!
If you want more info, think you might be the family, or know someone that would be….call Megan Roth at 801-838-8014. Tell her Mindy sent you.
Happy Hairdoing!
