When Isaac walked into the room this morning wearing one of the girl's headbands in his hair in an attempt to keep his hair out of his eyes, I knew I had to stop putting off that haircut.The last time I had taken him to get his hair cut, things hadn't gone so well. I was pretty sure we had worn out our welcome even before we got started when, as we walked through the door, the woman said, "Uh-oh, let me get my earplugs!" And she wasn't smiling when she said it. You would think that a place set up just for kids could at least be a little discreet with the earplug comments.
So I found us another place that caters to kids and, best of all, it's right next to Target. Isaac's favorite store. So I took him there first and let him run up and down the toy aisle for a long time, and then I even bought him some candy in the check-out line.
I'm happy to report that my bribery worked this time. He was great. We should have at least another cut or two before we're barred from this place.
