mixed feelings

it is finished….finally, i convinced my rebellious husband to shave his long locks of hair off. he looks amazing!!  with his haircut we also decided to shave ben and sam’s.  they have been complaining about their hair in their eyes and it gets a little crazy.

i loved their hair on the longer side, but they had been needing a trim for a while.  so we decided to take it all.

i cried.

after the first swipe of the clippers there was no turning back…and i was already wishing i hadn’t done it.  they were both scared.  sam went first. the more we cut the older he looked.  i got nauscious.  no longer my sweet little boys…they looked older, and they looked like trouble!  with their long adorable locks gone they looked scrappy.

needless to say i still don’t know whether or not i like it.  they seem happier and the good news is they are still my loving little men.  as i tucked them in they still gave me the sweetest hugs and told me that they loved me.  i know i will get used to it…and i know it will grow.  the crazy thing is that they look so much different from each other now…at least i think so.

but back to my husband….he is soooo hot!  his hair looks FANTASTIC.

  1. Jessica, I so feel for you. I agree, they do look older and I can even tell them apart without peaking at Sam’s little ear. I can relate a little, b/c it brings back that sinking gut feeling I got when Abby’s bangs were trimmed by her loving and well-intentioned grandmother. I saw the ponytail pic of Jason in Haiti, so I must agree that this look is so much better.

  2. love the hair all around!! it is crazy how different they look now. the boys hair will always grow and now it’ll be thicker and more fabulous! but please encourage jason to keep his short locks!

  3. Jason told me and Ronnie this morning that he cut his hair off because you said you would love him more if he did. I know that this is not true, but keep telling him whatever you have to, in order to keep him cutting his hair. I think all three of your men look stunning with their hair short.
