Last Friday I went out on a date with my husband.  The first time we had been out completely alone together in a long time (for a long time we were taking our nursing baby with us everywhere).  I wanted to do something different and yet simple with my hair.  So I just tied it in a knot.
I simply gathered two sections from the sides and tied them together.  And it stayed that way until I was ready to take it down right before bed.  Simple, easy, and comfortable.
My husband liked it.
And we had a great time together, talking (without interruption!) while we shared a pumpkin shake.  Bliss.  🙂

    I have curl envy right now. I like the knot! I wonder what you talked about with your husband uninterrupted…possibly the children ? 😉
    I am glad you had a good time. God bless.

    Beautiful! I love it! =) I'll have to try this, but my hair is straight, so I'm not sure if it will stay put. (Your curls are gorgeous, by the way!)
    Blessings,
