A new haircut


While Wayne was at work, I was able to convince Jack that it was a good idea to let me cut his hair. This is always a traumatic event for the boy who loves his hair. He doesn't suck his thumb and never had a pacifier, but his way of soothing himself is to play with his hair.


We have taken him to a place called 'Snip It's' here in Reno where they specialize in cutting children's hair. Bad idea. He absolutely hated it and I had to basically act as a human straight jacket in order for him to get his hair cut. I had to hold him in my lap, wrap my legs around his lower body while trying to hold both of his arms down with one arm and hold his head still with the other arm. This boy does not like to get his hair cut. So, with this in mind it didn't turn out too bad. Some tears were shed, but he really likes his new haircut because it looks like Daddy's. The best part of all is that you can only tell it is a 'mom hair cut' if you look closely.
