When the Dad's Away, the Boys Will...

...cut hair???

Jeff flew to Mexico City last Friday and returned today (yes, he was there during the earthquake yesterday--I posted some serious thoughts about that on Facebook), and before he left, he looked around at our boys and noticed that they're all sporting longer hair than normal!  He's been so busy recently that he hadn't had time to give them haircuts like he usually does.

Well, I couldn't do much to change the hair length of the older four boys, but when I suggested to the kids that one of them might be able to cut Benjamin's hair while Dad was away (Josiah, David, and Tobin have all done it before), they were eager to do so; and it was agreed that, as the oldest child and most experienced barber (not that he has much experience yet!), Josiah would have the honor.  :)

Just a few hours before I left for the airport to get Jeff, Josiah was hard at work, sprucing up his baby brother's look.  :)




What a fortunate boy Benjamin is, to have a plethora of personal barbers ready to assist him!  :)

Now if only Benjamin could return the favor and cut Josiah's hair!!  ;-)

Pictures like these are worth a thousand words or more. You are raising your children right. Helpful and productive teens are words that are hard to say these days. God Bless You!!
