Zeke's new hair do




So over the weekend after Scarlet and I got our hair cut I stated that Zeke would probably be next. Well he took those words to heart and yesterday morning went to work on his hair. I was upstairs getting dressed and Sofia was sleeping, usually during these times, Zeke draws or watches a short video, well this particular day he obviously didn't have anything to keep himself busy. He walks into my bathroom and says "hey mama do you like my new haircut" I laugh and turn to look at him and realize he is serious and has been busy cutting his own hair with his child scissors! He actually could have done much worse, he only cut his bangs and his hair is so thick that it was not completely gone . Still it looked really funny because his hair was short on his forehead and long over his ears and everywhere else. So when Dan got home he said lets just buzz it, he had been threatening to buzz it anyway, so we went for it. I must admit I was sad, I just love his long hair, it has so many shades of blonde and it is so thick and nice. He looks cute with it buzzed but he says now he can't shake his hair around! As you can see he was not happy while Dan was shaving it, he kept yelling, "daddy DO NOT CUT MY EAR OFF" we were outside and he was yelling this quite a bit so I am sure the neighbors were curious!
Anyway lesson learned on my part, keep the scissors put away and make sure he has something to do while I get ready!

That is so funny! I think at some point every kid has to cut their own hair, it's just one of those life lessons that has to be learned the hard way. I was cracking up when you said that he thought Dan was going to cut his ear off, poor kid. I bet he never cuts his hair again!!! :)
