Well today I had to document the "BIG event" Nick came in from school and said.."Let's go get my head shaved"....and why would I deny my son that????
It all started in the eighth grade when he wouldn't get haircuts anymore.....and I was tired of fighting about them. SO...I let him do whatever he wanted to do with his hair. He wasn't doing drugs..no alcohol..wasn't hurting anyone..and he was in school..so what could it hurt. "Choose your battles..they say"...so I chose not to fight about hair...and he's a great kid! and NOW a great kid with NO HAIR!!!!
He tells me that next year he will join the guard...join their "college first" program...go to school...(he cannot be deployed for 3 years as long as he is in school) do his weekend and two weeks a year with the guard during this time. ALL of this after basic training (which will be oh so good for him) finish out his time (whatever he signs up for) and then apply to flight school...and go regular army...so..that's the plan. WHEW....
but..he has eyes now!!!!

Oh my goodness! A great haircut and a great plan for the future. His momma must have raised him right!
Hope you are doing good! I sent you an email several weeks ago, but haven't heard back. Where are you?? I also sent a birth announcement to the NICU. Do you know if it made it there?
