Only mommy and daddy did not know about it this time. I guess a true artist can make anything their canvas, including the bathroom door. Thank goodness for "Magic Erasers" and digital cameras to still capture the moment and share with others!
Okay, most people, well in fact everyone, would disagree with that statement. But, how did she move that pillow to get it perfectly in place for a nice afternoon nap?
Today I decided to take Colt to get his hair trimmed. I normally take him to the girl who cuts my hair. But, I thought to myself...it may be good for him to have a kid-friendly experience and how could they mess it up as long as I am specific.
So, I took him to "Halfpint Haircuts" and told the lady three things...
1. I don't want it to look like that he has had a haircut.
2. I am not ready to let go of the curls yet.
3. Just trim his bangs so it is not hanging in his eyes and maybe a little over his ears.
Well, it is hard to tell exactly what they are doing when the hair is wet, but I started getting a little nervous at just how many cuts she was making. I think that she was on Mars when I made the above three statements because it definitely turned out to be a CUT rather than a TRIM.
So, I had my moment in the car. I made a few crying phone calls, but I just needed to hear Courtney say "I would react the same way if it was Caroline" and for my sister to say "I have definitely cried after one of Thatcher's haircuts". So, after my moment...I realized some good that could come out of this...
1. It is hair...it will grow back and the curls may bounce back a little after washing it.
2. He got to watch Elmo during his haircut, so that was fun!
3. He may enjoy the view of the world without looking through strands of hair (but that may only last a couple of months, because it might be a year before I cut his hair again).
And most importantly...he is still the most handsome 18 month old in the world!
Mom, how about this one?
Let the carving begin...
I am not so sure about what is in there Bops...
Just hanging out while Boppoo does all the work...

And making it through the difficult times, God has blessed us richly.
He is a fabulous husband...
And a great daddy.
I love you babe and look forward to many more years together!
