Crazy Hair Day

We often have crazy hair day at school To raise money for puppies, or wigs, or people who need a fresh start. People do all kinds of things to their hair. Mine is already crazy, it is fly away out-of-control hair like my father’s. I have to do nothing on crazy hair day, because my hair is already there. However, I do not want the children to feel disappointed. Color is covered, it's burgundy. I usually start looking in my desk drawer for ideas, then ask my friends to attach as many things as they can to my hair with paperclips, and rubber bands. I am a “hot mess” when they get finished. The peculiar thing is, the children are so used to my winsome ways, no one notices as I fly through my day, leaving a trail.
