*sob* lost a daughter, gained a son

[tripperfunster]

No, there was no wedding, the son/daughter in question is only three years old. Quincey decided sometime after his first birthday that he no longer wanted his hair cut. I disagreed, but after almost poking out his eye with my scissors, I relented.

Fast forward two years. My long haired galoot is CONSTANTLY mistaken for a girl (no big deal) but he is also starting to become quite clumsy due to his hair being in his face. (he refused a pony tail as well)....so, we drew the line and cut it.

I didn't cry, but I wanted to! I thought I'd post the before and after. Sorry about the quality, but YOU get a three year old to sit still. (the haircut was hard enough). Please also note that this is the crappiest haircut I have ever given. (well...to someone I wasn't mad at, anyway ;).







Let me also add that I must get on a plane at 6am tomorrow morning, and leave my babies for 4 days while I donn a HUGE TURQUOISE GOWN and stand up at my mother's wedding in Toronto. *sob* I hate to fly. Well, I don't hate flying, I hate dying in firey plane crashes. *heart palpatations*

Aww! Your son is such a cutie! I'm sorry you had to cut off all of his hair, but shorter hair (if he won't put it in a ponytail) is much more practical for for both genders at that age. When I was three, I had curly hair all the way down to my butt, but was (still am) extremely tenderheaded, and I made such a fuss every time my mom brushed it, she cut it all off to the length of your son's. It's been straight since, and my grandmother has never forgiven her for it, lol.

I'm sure your trip will be fine. Whenever I fly, I just keep myself from thinking about what is actually going on, and I can make it through the flight. And remember: You're safer in a plane than walking across the street. Enjoy your mother's wedding!

Thanks hon! Harry (my other son...yes, his name is Harry! :D ) has decided that it's HIS turn to grow his hair long. We'll see how that goes.

I"m here now, thanks to the massive {{{{NO CRASH}}}}} vibes that Canonfodder sent my way. I would have gotten exceedingly drunk, but the flight was at 6am, and the thought of a Ceasar turned my stomach! :D

I'll post a pic of the massive turquoise gown! (the wedding is Friday)
