I am so so happy that you are back Mandy. I hope that all is well for you and your family. When I heard that you decided to keep that lovely blonde hair of yours long I could not have been happier. You have been my inspiration. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you should cut such beautiful long hair. My hair has grown to just past my butt and with the help and encouragement of friends, family, websites like the long hair forum and a boyfriend who just adores my hair, I hope one day to have beautiful hair as long as yours. Thank you for sharing with us your story and your pictures. Good luck.
