Last night at bedtime we discovered that some time during the day Josh had given himself a hair cut.
It's pretty darn close to his head. I'm impressed. He must have worked really hard with those scissors. His hair is generally fairly unruly, which is why I think it took us so long to notice it. Also, he must have known he did something wrong because I have yet to find any hair around the house.
I offered to fix it for him, in the form of a very short buzz cut. Josh refused. He wanted me to make the hair grow back.
I tried all of my magic spells, but nothing worked. His hair just wouldn't grow any longer. Bummer.
So he went to church like this today. Most people didn't notice until it was pointed out. I might just let him keep it like this for a while because 1) he really doesn't want a haircut and that's a fight I just don't feel like dealing with right now, and 2) we'd really have to cut his hair short to match where he cut. It's too cold for him to suddenly not have any hair on his head!
I'm actually kinda surprised this is the first time this has happened in our family. I was even thinking about kids cutting their own hair the other day as I was using some scissors. Auspicious, no?
By the way, I told him I wanted to take pictures of him brushing his teeth. If I had said I wanted pictures of his hair there's no way I would have gotten any!
