Calvin's first hair cut

His curls aren't completely gone, but his hair looks very different! Dave and I came to the realization that his crazy hair was totally out of control, even if we tried to wet it down and let it be curly. It stuck out on the sides really far and some pieces were getting way too long in the back. So we squeezed in a hair cut for him in the middle of a few errands this morning. We took him to Jiva on Main St. We brought the whole family in, and Dave focused his attention on keeping Calvin still enough for the lady to do a decent job. He wasn't scared at all, he sat mostly still, but moved around a lot. Violet stood by his chair and said "Calvin, isn't this FUN?" Dave bribed him with a sucker and he seemed to be motivated to sit still enough for one of those sweet treats afterwards! I'm glad we got it done, even though it was hard to see the crazy curls go. He was starting to look Albert Einstein-ish. :P Before: After:

  3. Wow what a manly make-over!
    Very cool, Calvin!!
    Just remember you only have to get through one day at a time Maria!
    And each can be a joyful one even through there are trials when you realize you're training them in the Lord's presence with His approval...He understands every concern and difficulty and will give you wisdom.
    I think He'd even laugh with you!
    He wants the little children to know Him and
    He will work in their hearts to be better behaved, loving, and caring too...so He'll help everyone through these critically important training years...especially the parents, since He always enables us to do His will when we desire to do so.
    God BLESS!
