Tonight while we were eating dinner, Ritchie's dad was talking about Jackson's hair and how long it was. He said he looked like Eddie Munster with his long sideburns! Ritchie had said before that I should just cut his hair because last time we got it buzzed pretty short. So I thought, hey why not?? I asked Jackson if he wanted me to cut his hair and he said "Uh-Huh!!" So, I took him upstairs, sat him on a stool and made one streak up the back of his head with Ritchie's clippers. Ritchie wasn't home from work yet, so he couldn't tell me that there is supposed to be a guard on those things?? I mean, I've never cut anybody's hair before! So, I made one streak and BAM! my baby is bald. All that beautiful hair was gone. So here came the tears. Jackson was upset because he thought he had made me cry and all I could say is "What have I done?!?"
I called Ritchie's mom and she doctored it up for me. I couldn't bring myself to touch it anymore after that. So, it looks ok but he is for real a skin-head. Go ahead and tell me what a bad mother I am...
You are a wonderful mom!!!!
ReplyDeleteGirl, it will grow back so fast and then you will feel silly for beating yourself up about it! Plus what a fun story to tell at family gatherings when he's older! He's so cute he could be bald! Just don't try that on your daughter, girls don't look quite as good with a bald spot hahah! You are a fantastic mother and if that's the worse thing that ever happens you are doing great!!
ReplyDeleteAww Thanks guys! That makes me feel alot better!
ReplyDeleteAww! I cannot cut hair either! The first time I attempted to cut Charlotte's bangs once and they were AWFUL. So, I know how you feel. My husband had to come in and save the day. He makes a wonderful wife and mother. lol
