Noah is growing so fast. He can put together Legos for 7-14-year-olds with very little assistance aside from finding the elusive piece. He is very very impressed by this. He has all of a sudden stopped the daily tantrums and when a tantrum does occur it is usually because he feels like he failed at something. He has higher expectations for himself than I would ever dream of having.

He is such a great and cool kid.

It was time to do his hair last night-which was a matted up hot mess. He put it off and off and off and finally said NO.

“Really? You can let me do it or we shave it.” My usual threat.

“Let’s shave it.”

What the hell did he just say? Shave of the inches of absolutely beautiful curls. His hair goes past his shoulders when wet and pulled straight.

I asked 3 more times and he was decided. So, we cut. And cut. And mohawked.

He LOVES it. I know it will grow back.
