Little Boy Blue

Cooper left babyhood today – in looks at least.  

His bouffant of wild hair is no more.   He’s been called a girl too many times lately – or rather, everytime he isn’t wearing head to toe blue with some kind of logo on his shirt that says, “Mommy’s boy!”    

I  begin with the notion  to just  trim his bangs – something I’ve done at least three times before, but the rest has gotten so long and billowy that he suddenly looked like I’d put a bowl over his head.   I trimmed the sides and he looked decidedly like one of The Beatles.   So, past the point of no return, I literally crawled behind him and trimmed and clipped for another twenty minutes, at times scrambling with a piece of hair between my fingers and the scissors poised as I paced him around his room.

It’s not a perfect haircut, but Wow!, doesn’t my little guy look good?

(Ok, a little gel never hurts either, right?)
