: Can someone tell me why young light haired children are called "toe heads". thanks

'Toe head' should be 'tow head'. This is a US phrase and the reference to is to 'tow', which is the light-coloured fibre of flax, hemp, or jute. 'Tow-headed' is having tousled blond hair. This dates back to the 19th century and the OED has this entry:

1850 S. Judd " Bronze-faced and tow-headed Wild Olive boys."

A 'tow-head' is also the name for a sandbar or other obstruction on a river that causes ripples.

Thanks! I guess this applies to my sister. She had blonde hair till she was around 5, then it turned brown.
 

Well my bag is basically packed, just need to get the odds & ends together tomorrow night.

Now I need to get the boys packed.
 
Hunter took some advil at school at 2 PM, sudafed at 3 PM and tylenol at 7 PM. I'll give him more sudafed and Advil at 9 PM and hopefully he'll get some rest.
 
I just checked my profile. I average a little over 3 posts per day. Since there are a lot of days I don't post, I must be pretty chatty on the other days. I'm guessing a great majority of those posts are on DDA threads, too, but that's harder to check now that we have a bunch of chapters.

I also have one referral. I have no idea what for. :confused3 I try to be a rule-abiding Disboard citizen. :confused3

I have 12 posts per day. ;)

I hope you feel better soon! That cough sounds brutal! :wizard:

Referrals don't mean you did anything WRONG, it just means somebody reported one of your posts.

thank you!! and thank you all!! Tomorrow the interview is for the Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation....I would love to work there:lovestruc :lovestruc (this is the foundation I read about last year and said I want to work for them !!)

Good luck, Theresa!! :wizard:
 
Aw but they are cute little tow heads :goodvibes

I must say I agree.... but they certainly are as Heidi describes - hair so light you can't even tell it's there! If (when?!) we meet up on Thursday, you'll be surprised to see they have as much as they do, I'm sure! :rotfl:

Well that answers my question!
 
Anyone here Italian? I am in need of a good meat sauce for spaghetti. I have been using Prego for years but lately its been bothering John's stomach, I told him its all the Pepsi he drinks. ;)
