You can only hear, "oh he is getting a little mullet" a couple times before you HAVE to get your son's haircut! So I figured we better get it done before our big trip to Rome in a couple weeks! I was sort of dreading it, not because I'm so attached to his hair but because he can throw a nice back arching tantrum pretty well these days and I imagined this to be the case while we were there. Boy was I wrong.

I go to a lady in our town that has a salon in her home so I thought, well even if it was bad it's just us there, not an entire salon full of people! The lady was running a few minutes behind so Jackson sat on my lap and watched another lady get her hair cut. He was watching with awe and didn't move a muscle, so when it was his turn the same thing happened! He sat so still, I couldn't believe it. I think he was so nervous about what was going on that he couldn't move. He only turned to look at her a couple of times to see what was happening. I felt a little bad for him but was relieved at how well it went! At the end he got a little specullen (SP?) "marshmallow treat" for being so good. One for each hand! He then even sat on my lap through my entire hair cut also!

What a great experience! It makes me wonder why I have to always think the worst of something!
