How much does joy cost?






Turns out joy costs about $7.50. I went to Goodwill yesterday and picked up a hot roller brush, curling iron and hair dryer. I surprised Evie with them this afternoon. I haven't seen her that wildly excited a long time. She styled and experimented and had a wonderful time.

It is a great feeling to know your kid, know how to surprise them and be able to come with tiny things that celebrate and support their interests. $7.35 is a bargain!

Awesome!!

Except I shuddered when I saw that curling iron - I've got naturally curly (relaxed curl) hair, and when I was like 12 tried one of those out (I don't know why) and got my hair so tangled up in it! I cried and was so frustrated.... I steer FAR away from round hair brushes and such, now! :) oof.

That's so awesome that you found them and knew she would love them... and of course she did. :)
