MB prefers to have his hair short, in fact, his philosophy is the shorter the better.  Ever since he was a toddler, I’ve been bringing him to my beautician, Carol, to have his hair cut.  She adores him.  She loves to tell her customers the story about a time when MB was about 11 months old.  While she was cutting my hair, he was wandering around the shop and jabbering to himself.  All of a sudden, we noticed that it had gotten quiet.  Carol looked up from my haircut to see how he was doing and burst out into laughter.  MB had proceeded to climb up a chair and had plopped down into the sink where she washes hair.  There he was, calmly sitting cross-legged in the middle of the bowl.  She wishes she had a camera handy that day as she says it was a perfect Kodak moment.  He had no climbing into sinks this afternoon, just a haircut with the #4 blade.
