This is quite literally my most favourite gif in the Tumblr universe.
Dear Scarlet,
About a month ago you asked if you could have a “circle mohawk” again. I told you to think about it because you’ve been growing your hair out for so long and I didn’t want you to regret it. On Sunday night I told you I had a hair appointment with Allison the next day. You asked if you could get your hair cut like that again, but you were laying down for bed and not supposed to be talking so I ignored you. The next day you asked twice, so I finally said I didn’t care and that you look beautiful whatever you decide. The last time your hair was like this you weren’t in school yet, I was so nervous about kids being cruel. I walked you to school on Tuesday morning and stayed awhile to make sure everything was going to go smoothly, which it did. When I picked you up you said, “Olivia liked my hair. She said she didn’t want her hair like this, but she liked mine like this. And we’re still friends. That’ just like how I don’t want to have purple hair like Allison, but I love Allison’s purple hair. You don’t have to have all the same stuff as your friends.” Wise beyond your years, baby child. I’m so proud of you and how you have the courage to be exactly who you want to be, despite any other outside influences. While we’re on the topic of gender, when I was at parent teacher conferences a few months ago a mom of this little boy approached me. She told me how he wanted to paint his nails and go to school. She let him. When he came home he said, “Scarlet loved my nails, Mom!” I’ve never been so proud.THESE ALWAYS MAKE ME CRY

So, I have decided to do the insanity workout, again. The first go-round I made it three days and said fuck it. This time I’m committing. I’m almost twenty years old and it’s time to be better. I’ve been eating. Healthier as well. Fresh fish, fruit, healthier alternatives to pretty much everything. Water, only water. Bottle after bottle. The last couple of days my cravings for sweets have gotten soooo strong. Last night I went to the movies and had in salted, un buttered popcorn and a bottle of water, my boyfriend then bought me m&m’s and a kit kat. Wen ingot home last night, I couldn’t sleep. I craved food. Sweets mostly. I had two weight watchers candy bars, a weight watchers ice cream cone, yogurt and almonds, and a sandwich (80 calorie bread), and a bottle and a half of water. I did my cardio power resistance workout this morning and ate well. Bowl of Special K, grapes, eggs, protein bar, yogurt, salmon and brown rice, then tonight I discovered special k chips they’re awesome. Had a bunch of those, a banana, a lean cuisine, a two vanilla/chocolate ice cream cones, an ice cream candy bar. So, bad. Does anyone have any advice on how to curb some of the cravings. I really want to make this work. I just want some tips on how to better control them if you guys have any. Thanks so much.

Loved last nights’ Tilapia so much, repeated it for lunch today. With salad topped with a tablespoon of Italian dressing and olive oil.
