For the last 9 months, my life has been one big 'go go go! Hurry hurry hurry!'  Single mom doing the work/college thing...not enough time in the day I tell ya.  Due to this lack of attention paid to myself personally, and my appearance, I discovered something very disturbing last night...

I'm getting gray hair!
*whine*
I'm only 25!  

How is it that something like that can sneak up on a person??!  S'not right, I tell ya!


grrrr!
lol

Not as bad as it could be...I knew a kid who had gray hairs at the ripe old age of 10!

Satiate, I've had several bright white/grey hairs since I was 12.
If they bug you that much, grab a bottle of dye... or let yourself age "gracefully" into a brilliant silver..
Besides, you have kids. You'll be seeing many many more of those little buggers the next 18 years...

Beth is right. If you look up "parent" in any good thesaurus, you'll discover it's a synonym for gray hair. Happy. But very, very gray.

Besides, you don't really have anything to complain about until you start losing your hair…

I was going to age gracefully, and accept gray hair.  But everything else about me did not accept the gray hair...including my spirit.  My "natural" color is more becoming...even if it is naturally bottled.  LOL...

Grey hair at 25? I'm 24, and I have to say that scares me a little. Maybe I'll be exempt since I don't have children, or does the husband count as two children? Geesh...

Don't feel bad, I've had grey hair since I was in the 8th grade.  It's not completely noticeable, but it's there.  I'm 21 now (well, later this month) and I have this streak of grey... but hair dye works wonders  =)

If you're a single mom, working and going to college, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL no matter what color your hair is. When you're finished with college, you'll have time for a little finesse

I'm still in the single mom stage of everything.  Working and doing college here until it is time for me to leave.  I have had gray hair long before Luke was born though.  I think that I got it my senior year in HS and I'm the ripe old age of 22.  What does this say?  

TOO MUCH STRESS!!!

Love,
Lady

Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.
