Me and me 2 girls were in the car on the way home. I had my wig off in the car. I drove up to the house and my 6 year old noticed my husband had a friend over. My 6 year old says, "Oh hurry, put your wig on". I said no I don't have to. Then my daughter says, "Oh it's so gross". I told my child that there is nothing wrong with my bald head. I told her I am fine the way I am and I am a beautiful child of God! Someday, when she is about 25, she too will lose the rest of her hair. I hope she remembers how I reacted and remember the truth in my words.

wow, you handled that really well. I tend to get hot headed with such things so I probably would have gotten angry. Its really great that you're comfortable with who you are and are teaching her the same values.
