I found it so entertaining that my 6 year old, who normally always wears a ponytail to school decided the other morning that she is not wearing them anymore. Instead, she wanted to get to wear her hair down so that the kids don\'t call her "Curly Fries" anymore. I am going to take a stab in the dark and say that I think maybe it's because of my favorite little clips from Gymboree that are swirly little ribbons like on presents but who knows.
