The demise of a mullet

For quite a few months, Harrison was sporting a full on mullet. There was no mistaking it - business in the front and party in the back.

While my entire goal was to let his bright blonde hair grow longer (think shaggy surfer hair) a mullet was never my intent. The problem is that I never could decide when to trim the moo-lay.

Finally, it became evident that the party had to go. He did really well...I was quite surprised. (After all, this is the kid that is afraid of characters at Disneyland and literally had assaulted Woody not that many days before)

And, just because, Sawyer.

AFTER:

While I'm on the topic..

After I'd written the last post about all the things I'm thankful for any my shortcomings as a person/parent, Cam presented us with his thankful list. This was prepared in class and presented to us on Thanksgiving after we asked him what he was thankful for.

He was quite happy he didn't have to tell us - merely hand us this!

Having all of these written works of his (and I'm sure the other two will prove as amusing) are going to be such a kick someday. (Someday? They already are!) Thank goodness for projects that really stretch his brain!

I'm also sure that someday I'm going to be glad to have pictures of my kids that I'm really happy with. Otherwise, how would I remember this wonderful face to go with that list of things he's thankful for?
