curls

Try this on for size:
My hair has changed texture.
This is a bizarre thing. A bizarre, but very cool thing.
My entire life I have had straight hair. Straight with a "dab" of wave in random spots...((very much like Katie Holmes' hair when it was longer and she was younger)). I have been able to curl it with a curling iron, or TRY to scrunch it to get the effect of 'curly,' but it wasn't natural.
At any rate, I've noticed that in the past month or so, my hair has decided to slowly, but surly curl. Yes, on it's own. Without prompting! It is so strange to me. Every time I wash it, I expect it to revert back, but it hasn't. It's pretty cool!
I have 10 girl cousins on my father's side, and 80% of them have curls. My sister and I, did not get them (our Mom has POKER straight hair). I have always liked curly hair. I've even had 2 or 3 perms in my life (2 of which were horrifically curly, and one didn't take), hoping to be able to mimic what my cousins naturally have. But now, without any explanation, I have curls.
I actually just recently went off an impulse, and got about 6 inches cut off my hair.
I figured the curls would get chopped off, but they stayed with me!

Has this ever happened to anyone? I mean, I've read your hair can change after pregnancy, but hello, Cale is two. I kinda figured any change like that would have already taken place (my Mom's hair got darker with each pregnancy). Perhaps the chemical body change just came late?

OR...maybe, just maybe, God is granting me curly hair so my new baby and I will be able to "match" despite our other physical differences. I like to think so. Thank you Lord. :)
