Alec had his Christmas program on Thursday afternoon. All these kids with their little props and their little voices singing just melted my heart. I think I spent half the time fighting back the tears. Not because he is growing older, not because I was a proud momma but because it was just so darn cute.
But before I get to the program – lets talk about Alec’s new hair cut. I took him on Monday for a little trim before all the holiday pictures. The lady asked him if he was ready and he said yes but please don’t push his hair to the side- he doesn’t want to look like a girl. She asked if I wanted the bowl cut still and I said yes…and then Alec said no. At the same time. Hmmm. So she ignored me politely and catered to her client. :) She went to get the book and had Alec pick out the picture he wanted to look like. I was not consulted. Didn’t she know who was paying the bill? :) Alec picked something short all around with a spike in the front top. And away all the hair fell from his head. His attitude went from sweet innocent 4 yr old with a bowl cut to a punkish 4.5 year old with every hair that fell away from his head. He can sport this hair-cut better than I would like.
I miss the bowl cut.
But he loves his new ‘do.
Which means …yes – I do really understand it is not about me. :)
And here are some shots from the program:
Erik took video the kids singing – maybe one of these days I will put it up.
So stinkin’ cute!
