The Haircut

This weekend I took a big step as a Mommy and finally cut our little Reece's hair. I would tell you the whole story, but I just did this 2 page spread for a sketch challenge over at TDC and I think I'll just let the page tell the story for me over at .

Journaling: As you'’ve grown this past year, I'’ve loved watching your blonde little locks grow. You are so sweet so blonde, and with your hair long, you still felt like a baby to me. It was a hard decision to finally give you that first trim, but I knew it was time since every one kept mentioning that you looked like a little girl. When I finally got up the guts to give you a trim I went for it right away before I lost my nerve. You were so good for your first haircut, sitting in the sink and playing with your toothbrush. When we were done, you were so proud, and so was I. You look so handsome with a big boy haircut! The best part is, you are still just as sweet.

He doesn't look nearly as much like a baby any more... it is strange! But I'm loving his new hair cut, and I'm pretty certain I'll get less compliments on my "two boys and baby girl" (poor Reece!). But still, this is the end of an era for me and my sweet little long haired Reece!
