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?)
How could someone ever think that handsome boy to be anything but a little man? But his hair looks great, good job mama!

Awesome! my kid has a cowlick that wants to stand straight up, but he’d never let me goo him up with gel… how cool is the “power of small!”
