Uncle Buddy Hair
Lucas has had some interesting hair escapades. Like the one week when Louis played “gel up the boys hair” with Isaac, Lucas, and JJ.
There was the first time I gave him a “big boy” haircut like Daddy’s when he discovered the do-everything-like-Daddy mode.
Over Thanksgiving this year, my brother came down. Instead of his always-growing-out hair that he only cut for donating, my little brother was sporting a military crew almost shaved cut. Lucas loved it. Lucas spent most of the time trying to climb on Buddy, so it really was only a little surprise when I came home to Lucas without any hair.
Louis had been trimming his & Lucas said, “Dad, I want an Uncle Buddy Haircut!”
Mom would have tried to talk him out of total shaved, but Daddy was like, “oh yeah!” and buzz clippers made very short work of Lucas’ hair – that he had been “growing out” the last time we did haircuts.
Lucas seems to like it. One of the afterschool friends pets his head and says “good dog” – but Lucas just barks and laughs. Louis said, “maybe I should have left a little hair,” but it grows back.
The girls and Louis called him Aang (from the Last Airbender series) and I’ve got to laugh because there is a bit of a resemblance when he’s goofing off…
At least we are facing a Florida winter! I tease him that beanies will be his best friend!
Thank you for reading!
Type at you next time!
