He got his hair cut!


This is the new and improved Christopher! (If you do not remember his hair before scroll down and you can see him on an earlier post). We have this philosophy that if our children are doing great in school and are not getting in trouble at school or or not hanging out with the wrong crowd than they can have their hair anyway they want. He started the beginning of the school year last September and continued to let it grow until last Friday. We had talked about it a few times but he just wanted to keep it long. Come to find out he says he hates his ears. He was trying to cover them up all this time and really did not like the long hair. Poor kid. I happen to think he looks great and I really do not notice his ears. I think I live with him and get used to it. I absolutely love the new hair cut. it really doesn't matter what his hair looks like he will always be the awesome person he is. Christopher has got to be the best big brother anyone could have. All the kids just love him. I even have other families tell me how good he is with little kids. He is a sweet natured kid that would do anything for anyone. I love him sooooo much. ( when he is not arguing with me). I am so lucky to have a son that has great qualities that will help him throughout his life.

He is so cute. I am struggling with trying to get my boys to get haircuts. They are into this long hair trip and I think it is looking shabby! I am fine with them growing it out, but it needs to be trimmed up! It is so fun to find more moms with six kids. It is kind of rare out here in Cal.

Christopher is beautiful with long hair, short hair, big ears, little ears, no hair/no ears!!! Cause his Grandma says so!!!!

For your newer Mom's struggling with the length of your boy's hair, I'll share a little story about Steven & hair.

Prior to Steve & Shaundra marrying, he lived in San Diego and when it came to hair, Steven was at the barber's faithfully to make sure he was the cutest boy in Foothill Middle School and Northgate High School ;.) While in San Diego, he let his hair grow way past his shoulders. When he was home one weekend, I commented negatively about his hair and he said something like, "Mom, I didn't realize that you were shallow. If you can't look beyond my exterior and see that I am the same Steven with the same values and good heart, then you don't know me!". I knew right away that he was ABSOLUTELY right and hair has never, ever been a sore subject with me again. So, remember........."Don't judge a book by it's cover".
