The boys went for haircuts today...in our kitchen. And, "who, you may ask, cut their hair?" "Drumroll Please!"....ME!! I know what you are thinking, mom and dad. I know you are saying to yourselves..."not our child who flunked cutting in kindergarten!" Well, with the cost of haircuts jumping way up recently and now that we have two boys needing monthly cuts, I decided it was time to learn how to cut hair. I visited the local WalMart, found what looked like a good deal on a razor kit and headed home eager to get started. I know the looks on their faces indicates that they just went through sheer torture, but really they both did great! And better yet, they didn't come out looking half bad for the first time. I learned some things to do different next go around. But, the razor itself cost less than it does to go get both of them one haircut! Anyway, Rick was actually very pleased with my ambition and the end result. After all, they are little boys who could not care less how their hair looks, so as long as that keeps up I have time to keep perfecting my techniques. (P.S. - I'll take pictures tomorrow of them SMILING with their new haircuts! :)

You did great! I'll be asking YOU for pointers soon. :)
I have always cut my family's hair- It's just too expensive to pay for 5 haircuts every other month. Good job!
