Dear Elliott, I’m Sorry.

Oh my sweet baby boy. I am sorry.

I am sorry I got irritated with your beautiful blonde locks always being in your eyes.

I am sorry I got frustrated with yogurt and avocado constantly being in your hair.

I am sorry I didn’t appreciate the way your hair curls behind your ear.

Most importantly though, I am sorry I wasn’t patient enough to wait to take you for your haircut.

You see, it has been a long time since your brother was little and I was just sure I used to cut his hair. I was sure I used to cut his hair with scissors and make it look good. What I forgot was that I only cut the very top of his hair, one time.

I am sorry that I made your neckline way too high and that Daddy had to try to fix it.

I am really sorry that he did almost as bad a job as I did and that you will now have to walk around looking like a ragamuffin until it grows out.

Lucky for you, it isn’t as bad when you are 15 months as it is when you are 15.

I am also sorry I will be blaming your sister for your haircut.

Love,

Mama

    I’ve shanked a little boy’s haircut before. With the clippers. The worst part is having to look at it until it grows out.

    hahaha!! Good thing the girls are tough-they can take the heat!!!! He STILL is a dolly babe, a cutie patutie and the most precious little ruger I have seen in a long time!!

  5. I shouldn’t laugh… really I shouldn’t…

  6. ahahaaaa – so funny. I have done this to my boys too many times…I am just a cheapskate! 5 sons, haircuts are expensive! Luckily my daughter just finished beauty school and taught me how to do it properly, so I have only been messing up their hair for like, 13 years…it’s all good. He’s adorable, no matter what his hair looks like!
