keeping miss e......


























we kept ellaiden for a week to give chris and jenny a little break (little because they still had 'little' soren with them); we had a ball with miss e and she even went to school with me one day to visit. they've just discovered that ellaiden has alopecia aerata, the hair loss disease. hopefully it will be a one-time hair loss (her father, chris, lost a lot of his hair at about the same age and it all came back and he never lost it again. ). i have read that male pattern baldness is also a form of alopecia and my dad had early balding and chris is having some early thinning and receding hairlines. there can be a genetic connection so maybe this is it for ellaiden and it will all grow back. if not....if she loses it all.....i will shave my head in concert with her. and if you don't think i will then you don't really know me.
